CUSTOMIZED ASSESSMENT SERVICES

Customized Assessment Services (CAS) is a flexible exam-building tool that enables educators to create custom assessments that align with a variety of curricular approaches, including discipline-based, organ system-based and longitudinal integrated clerkships. It features a large pool of NBME test questions that are developed by committees of subject matter experts.   

In addition to helping you save the time and resources that go into developing your own assessment and offering more flexibility than a pre-built, end-of-course exam, CAS enables you to:

• Incorporate both foundational and clinical science content to support an integrated curriculum
• Create and administer custom midterm assessments to track how your students are progressing
• Gain insight into examinee performance at an individual item level to provide actionable feedback
• Use filters and a search function to find the most relevant questions for each of your content areas
• Add questions to your favorites to access them easily next time you're building a blueprint
• Share your tests with colleagues and access those shared by other educators through the CAS Community

Introducing the CAS Practice Option

The CAS Practice option gives you a flexible new way to use CAS with non-proctored tests that enable you to:

• Build blueprints from a dedicated question bank of foundational science items
• Set up online administration windows, eliminating the need to reserve rooms or find proctors
• Give students more flexibility by allowing them to test anytime within the administration window
