This eight-week program provides a unique opportunity for interns to engage in meaningful research projects that contribute to large-scale international computer-adaptive tests (CAT). Interns will gain hands-on experience with operational workflows while developing a deep understanding of the practical considerations necessary when bridging research with impactful outcomes. Under the guidance of our staff, each intern will select a research topic that aligns with their interests and the organization's needs. As part of their collaboration, interns will be responsible for a presentation to the examinations team, along with the development of a conference submission proposal and/or a research paper for publication. NCSBN values diversity and encourages applications from students of all backgrounds. We are committed to providing a supportive and inclusive learning environment, where interns can gain practical skills in CAT and licensure and certification exams. Detailed project descriptions will be discussed during the interview process. Interns can anticipate an engaging experience that bridges academic research with real-world applications. Program Goal The goal of the internships is to provide an opportunity to gain practical experiences and a comprehensive understanding of the process involved in both applied research as well as producing and delivering operational examinations. We offer the following two internship tracks: Psychometric Track The psychometric track provides interns with extensive operational experience that spans the entire life cycle of test development. Interns in this track will collaborate with testing professionals to learn about the development and administration of the NCLEX exams, acquire knowledge on the dynamics of a CAT exam, and engage in discussions about current measurement topics.

The emphasis of this program is to gain hands-on experience in data processing, sophisticated and modern analysis techniques, and the practical application of computer science and machine learning in the realm of testing and assessment. Interns will work closely with testing professionals to learn about the intricacies of data management, analytics in a real-world setting, and valuable understanding of how data-driven decisions are made in professional contexts. Additionally, each intern will undertake an exploratory research project, allowing them to apply their learning in a focused area that aligns with their interests and organizational goals.
