Agenda Item 2 - Discussion of the Registered Dental Assistant WrittenExamination Development Process - Presentation by Consultant Tracy Montez,PhD.Dr. Montez gave an overview of the process that is utilized to develop licensureexaminations. Subject Matter Experts (SME) who are all licensees in good standingand actively practicing were contacted and asked to attend workshops or focus groupsto assist in developing the new examination.There were several focus group meetings; the prior examination outline was reviewed,as well as, the prior analysis that was done. The focus group then went over thechanges in the statutory language; based on this information the focus groupdetermined what type of competencies to include in the examination outline and whatcompetencies to remove because they were no longer relevant. Workshops were thenscheduled to developed questions based on the identified critical competencies forlicensure.The new examination outline and questions were developed based on the statutoryrequirements and followed the national standards for licensure examination testdevelopment. This very standardized process for developing licensure examinationsalways involved testing experts and SME's. Board staff is also involved because staffknows the policies. These processes make the examination defensible.Dr. Montez stressed the importance of continuing to develop the exam to ensure theexamination will test competency. It is also important to accept feedback fromstakeholders and schools, the information be fed into the exam development processand the necessity of always reevaluating what you are testing.Ms. Gyllenswan asked why educators are eliminated from the process. Dr. Montezresponded that it depends on the philosophy of the testing expert. Educatorstraditionally have a mindset of teaching to the universe of practice, with licensing examsyou want to test critical competencies. Educators were in some of the workgroups, butwere not included in workgroups that set the passing score to protect themselves andthe Board.Ms. Baldwin asked how the recruitment of SME's was done. Dr. Montez responded thatBoard staff was provided with the criteria for a SME and contacted the SME's.Many questions were asked relating to the percentage of questions on the examinationplan that are rudimentary or require certification to qualify for licensure, includingInfection Control, Coronal Polish, and Sealants. Dr. Montez responded that the dozensof SME's felt it was very important to have the quantity of questions and that theyshould be weighted heavier with those types of questions. As a licensing board, theDental Board must be conservative in it's measurement of competency. In time thesepercentages may change.Joan Greenfield, Dental Assisting Alliance Stated the Alliance has gone on record thatthey don't feel the RDA written is defensible. The Alliance believes the testing expertallowed the SME's to derail the RDA written and the exam is not reflective of currentPage 2 of 4 - Draft

RDA duties. Hopes that OAF will have input to the Board on what she feels thestructure of the exam should have.Lori Gagliardi, CADAT asked if we knew the pass rate for candidates based on theindividual qualification method. Stated that CADAT is happy with the wide variety ofquestions.M/S/C (Baldwin/Jordan) recommend to the Board upon review of the examination,would like the Board to consider changes to the following areas in the content outline toinclude Infection Control, Dental Radiation Safety and Preventative procedures.Agenda Item 3 - Discussion of the Registered Dental Assistant Law and EthicsExamination Development ProcessNancy Linn from the Department of Consumer Affairs, Office of ProfessionalExamination Services, gave an overview of the contract utilized to develop the newexam. Ms. Linn explained the process that was used to develop the examination outlineand cited the differences between the process and references she was able to useversus those that had to be used for other exams.Ms. Linn stated it is very important in licensure and selection of Subject Matter Experts(SME) to utilize relatively newly licensed SME's because we are trying to gear all of ourinformation and focus to the entry level/minimally competent.Ms. Linn explained how a cut score is determined for each version of an exam.Ms. Baldwin asked what the pass/fail rate is this examination. Ms. Linn stated 71 %.Ms. Baldwin asked why the ethics references did not include the CDAA or ADAA. Ms.Linn responded that all reference that were available to the public. It was the decisionof the SM E's on which reference materials to use.Dr. Whitcher asked what was planned for developing further questions for the itembank. Ms. Linn explained that we have a new contract as a result of the examinationbreach that occurred. The contract was originally scheduled to start in August 2010.Ms. Linn explained that additional questions cannot be developed without a contract.Ms. Baldwin questioned "veracity" portion of the outline. She believes this category isgeared toward front office duties. Ms. Linn responded that these questions weredeveloped and validated by the SME's and were written from the Dental Assistantperspective.Joan Greenfield, Dental Assisting All
