TAO is a commercial-grade, Open Source
assessment solution for Education and Public Sector Employment.
Proprietary, multi-vendor configurations are difficult to manage and expensive to operate.
With TAO, you only pay for what you need: Open
Assessment Technologies eliminates software license fees
and makes the source code freely available. That means you
can use TAO out-of-the-box or customize it to your needs.
The TAO Item Creator is a powerful, standards-based content
authoring application built on top of a highly scalable item
bank. It enables you to create QTI 2.1 compliant tests,
ensuring content interoperability and investment protection.
Technology Enhanced Items (TEIs) can be implemented using
the QTI-PCI specification, or the Open Web Item application
programming interface (API).
Tools for Test Creation, Test-Taker Registration, Online
Delivery and Results Reporting are all included with the
TAO platform. They work together in harmony and yet are
completely open, giving you full control over the entire
assessment cycle.
