Last week was Independence Day in the United States, and to celebrate, we are looking at all the independence your organization can experience by partnering with Kryterion. We’re committed to putting the learner first, keeping costs low, and giving you the freedom to develop and deliver tests how you want.
So, in honor of July 4th, let’s examine the five key pillars of independence that Kryterion encompasses to revolutionize the certification landscape.
Independence from Publishing Fees
At Kryterion, we believe that you should be able to grow your testing program without having to worry about financial constraints. Your funding should go to more important things like creating world-class test content and getting the word out about your program.
That’s why there are no fees for publishing a new exam or updating an existing one. It’s your exam and you should be able to publish and edit it as much as you want without being penalized by fees. Our approach provides organizations with the financial freedom for unlimited publishing and independence from the restrictive and expensive models of other traditional providers.
Independence from Investors
In the fast-paced world of credentialing and online assessment, many companies are driven by the demands of public markets or the directives of financial stakeholders. But not Kryterion. We provide independence from the world of venture capital firms.
We’re proud to be part of the Drake International family, a leading staffing agency company that was founded in 1951. Drake is privately owned, which means Kryterion isn’t at the mercy of quarterly earnings reports or the fluctuating whims of the stock market. Instead, our strategic decisions are guided by a commitment to long-term vision, client satisfaction, and continuous innovation within the assessment industry.
Independence from a One-Size-Fits-All Model
The modern professional world is anything but static. New technologies, evolving best practices, and shifting job roles demand a certification process that is equally agile. A rigid, one-size-fits-all approach to testing can quickly become obsolete, failing to accurately measure the skills that truly matter in the current market.
Kryterion provides independence from the rigidity of only out of the box solutions. Our platform allows for a wide array of question types and exam formats, enabling test sponsors to build assessments that authentically reflect what is important to them. This independence from a rigid structure ensures that certifications remain relevant, valuable, and a true measure of learning.
Independence from Using Only a Single Camera
In many cases, using a single camera to proctor online exams is sufficient. But when it comes to security, you need to make sure that all cases are appropriately monitored. Which is why Kryterion provides a dual camera option for the highest level of security when administering an exam, allowing proctors to monitor a larger area of the candidate’s environment compared to a single embedded or standalone external camera.
The candidate’s face is captured through an integrated webcam, while the test-taker’s mobile device camera provides a wide-angle view of the area. This level of security is unmatched. The independence of being able to use dual camera proctoring for online testing is just another way that Kryterion helps organizations break free from the restrictions of outdated testing models.
Personal Independence
The goal of any certification should be to provide personal and professional independence. It’s about equipping individuals with the validated skills and confidence to take control of their career paths and pursue their ambitions.
Because Kryterion builds its services on a foundation of independence, the benefits flow directly to the candidate. It transforms the certification process from a daunting obstacle into a stepping stone for personal and professional advancement. Candidates have the freedom to take control of their own destinies through testing that meets them where they are.
It’s time to remove the restrictions, increase the options, and gain independence from the testing providers of yesterday. Flexibility, scale, and choice are the pillars of successful testing, and Kryterion is leading the way for a new generation of candidates. Let’s talk more about how we can help your organization gain the independence they deserve.
