NCTA, organized in 2000 when several regional associations merged their memberships, focuses on issues relating to test administration, test development, test scoring, and assessment.

Membership is open to testing professionals in colleges, other post-secondary settings, and testing companies. NCTA has more than 1,000 members in the United States and Canada. Communication and professional development are promoted in numerous ways, including newsletters, mailing lists, annual national conferences, and more.
