This two-day pre-conference Regional Item Writing Workshop offers an opportunity for PTs and PTAs to help ensure that candidates taking the NPTE receive sound, high-quality questions that reflect a broad range of practice. The workshop will cover item-writing theory, the development of items that test higher-order thinking skills, and specific item-writing techniques. Participants are asked to write twenty entry-level items in a variety of content areas over the course of three months.
