Mountain West Assessment Consortium
In March of 2003, the Mountain West Assessment Consortium was awarded a federal grant through the Enhanced Assessment Instruments Competitive Grant Program to develop an English language proficiency assessment. The Mountain West Assessment Consortium is a group of states in the mountain west region of the United States which includes Alaska, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oregon, Utah, and Wyoming. Measured Progress is a partner in this consortium, and the state of Michigan has joined this project as an associate member.
The purpose of this grant-funded project is to improve the instruction and assessment currently provided for English language learners. This population encompasses over 400,000 students in grades K-12 across the member states.
