Comment: The types section is entirely unreferenced. Reads like a promotional piece Utopes (talk / cont) 23:10, 11 September 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: I think that the current version of the page is very USA focused, but could be useful addition to Category:Disability accommodations. However, unless the content is globalized, this content is better served to flesh out Disability_in_the_United_States#Education_2 and Inclusion_(disability_rights)#Inclusion_in_the_United_States.

Testing accommodations include a wide variety of changes to standardized testing administration rules that govern time, presentation, response, and setting.
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) recognizes that testing accommodations are an important requirement for ensuring all Americans have fair access to education and career pathways. This act defines testing accommodations as "changes to the regular testing environment and auxiliary aids and services that allow individuals with disabilities to demonstrate their true aptitude or achievement level on standardized exams or other high-stakes tests".[1]
Testing accommodations include a wide variety of changes to standardized testing administration rules that govern time, presentation, response, and setting. The Standards for Educational and Psychological Testing provide some guidance on how testing accommodation decisions should be made to ensure these changes alter the construct being measured or the comparability of test scores.
Recently, the international testing community has begun to explore how to provide testing accommodations on the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development's (OECD) standardized tests that compare performance across the world[2].[3]
