UKALTA

UKALTA is a professional organisation that aims to provide a forum for the exchange of information and research on language testing and assessment in the UK. Founded as a professional association and learned society in 2016, UKALTA grew out of the Language Testing Forum, an annual gathering of UK-based language testing and assessment specialists which has met since 1980... UKALTA belongs to the British Academy's Network of Learned Societies and Subject Associations, the Academy of Social Sciences (AcSS) and the Arts and Humanities Alliance (AHA), participating regularly in national meetings of these bodies. It is also a member of the Committee for Linguistics in Education (CLIE) and is affiliated to the International Language Testing Association (ILTA). UKALTA promotes the ILTA Code of Ethics and ILTA Guidelines for Practice as important principles for professionals working in the field of language testing and assessment.
