TOWES is an effective
assessment that accurately measures three Essential Skills: Reading
Text, Document Use, and Numeracy.
TOWES is different from other
assessments. Test takers must assume the role of a worker and use
information from authentic documents to solve workplace problems or
complete tasks.
The General Series (or G
Series) assessments apply to a variety of testing needs. They
contain content that is relevant to all occupations such as safety
bulletins, procedures, and schedules.
