Automated Testing

Test users can then, at their convenience, enter the answer sheet responses into their computer for scoring and printing reports within 2 to 3 minutes.

When the 25 or 50 tests on a diskette are used, client's names are deleted with a few keystrokes (HIPAA compliant) and used diskettes are returned to Risk & Needs Assessment, Inc. for ongoing research.
