OEB – a global conference on technology-supported learning and training that focuses on fostering exchange between the corporate, education, and public-service sectors – is expected to attract more than 2,300 attendees representing over 100 countries. A point of discussion at OEB will be the critical importance of e-Assessment interoperability. 

“The industry as a whole needs to move toward a fully interoperable, end-to-end assessment ecosystem that is standards-based. OEB is the perfect platform to discuss this idea and bring us all closer to a solution that benefits administrators, educators, and students alike,” said Marc Oswald, CEO of Open Assessment Technologies. “Fully portable assessments are becoming a reality, and as members of this community, it is incumbent that all of us proactively participate in this discussion to stay ahead of the curve and fully realize the potential of digital education.”
