ATI Assessment and Remediation Program Policy, complete solution guide.

ATI Assessment and Remediation Program Policy Introduction The Assessment Technologies Institute (ATI) is an online, comprehensive, testing and review program, designed to provide students with various learning tools that will assist them in learning course content, identifying strengths and weaknesses, reviewing content, improving test taking abilities, and ultimately successfully passing the NCLEX-RN® for professional licensure. Research has demonstrated a strong correlation between successful completion of ATI proctored assessments and successful first-time pass rates on the NCLEX-RN® (Davenport, 2007). Courses at the Christine E. Lynn College of Nursing (CELCON) integrate the ATI Comprehensive Assessment and Remediation Program (CARP) as 10% of the course grade in selected courses. ATI program consists of practice assessments, proctored exams, and tutorials. All proctored assessments, including the RN Comprehensive Predictor will be scheduled on specific dates and times. As part of the ATI package, students will be required to complete proctored assessments as a course requirement in select courses. Proctored ATI exams will be given at the FAU Testing Center (students pay a sitting fee for each exam) and under exceptional circumstances may be given in the classroom. If in the classroom, students are required to bring a laptop with Wi-Fi capability and, browsers compatible with the ATI program. Proctored ATI exams will be administered prior to course completion and scheduled by course faculty. Practice Assessments Two practice assessments are required as part of the preparation for the proctored exams. Proficiency of 65% (as defined by ATI and is equivalent to the CELCON 73% minimum) is the benchmark with one attempt on each assessment. Following completion of the first practice assessment, all students will do the required remediation (minimum 2 hours) and take the second practice assessment in a minimum of 7 days after the first practice assessment. Remediation for practice assessments is outlined below. Practice Assessments are worth 2 points each and up to 4 points total (must complete Assessment A & B to receive any points and must score 65% or greater on both Assessment A & B to receive 4 points; if score is less than 65% on Practice A or Practice B, then zero points awarded for that assessment.
