Typequick Skill Evaluator

Typequick Skill EvaluatorTypequick Skill Evaluator is a quick, efficient and convenient method of benchmarking keyboard skills before and after training and is a time-saving tool for all those involved in assessing and hiring staff or training students. It is fully automated and designed to monitor every keystroke for a set duration and accurately mark and score the test. Tests score both speed and accuracy. Detailed evaluation information is then printed providing a valuable record of the tested keyboard skills.

The test criteria can be varied in many ways to suit particular test requirements and access to these administrative functions can be password protected. Skill Evaluator is the only testing software that meets the Australian Standard AS2708-2001 for marking and used in the Accredited Unit BSBITU307 - Develop Keyboarding Skills and Accuracy.

Skill Evaluator has two modes, Basic and Younger, and each mode has twelve different test texts to choose from. You can also customise the tests by adding your own text material or test examinees with hard-copy test text.

The Typequick free online typing test uses the underlying technology for the Skill Evaluator product so doing a free test will show you the interface and results. The period for the free test is set to two minutes rather than the recommended five minutes used when getting an accurate assessment.
