The State of the K-12 State Assessment Market

Eduventures’ research indicates that the market for state exams will increase by more than 13% between the 2004-05 and 2005-06 academic years, as states implement the full battery of tests required by No Child Left Behind (NCLB). However, growth is projected to stabilize at an annual rate below 5% beginning in the 2007-08 school year.

In The State of the K-12 State Assessment Market, Eduventures reports that all 50 states and the District of Columbia are on target to meet the mandated statewide testing initiatives laid out by NCLB, with at least interim summative assessment solutions. Coverage in this report also focuses on the estimated state assessment market size, key suppliers
and their initiatives, sources of state funding, procurement patterns, and market opportunities.
