- The U.S. Department of Labor, Office of Assistant Secretary of Administration and Management, Office of Job Corps, intends to award a sole source order to CTB McGraw Hill for licensing of the Test of Adult Basic Education (TABE) 9/10 test. The period of performance is for (5) years with (1) Base year and (4) Option years. The test is an electronic version used to test Job Corps students nationwide via the test hosted at the Job Corps Data Center, Austin Texas. The license to use this automated system is proprietary to CTB McGraw Hill, 123 Jenks Circle, Panama City, Florida 32405. The test must be able to predict performance on GED tests, capable of being used as both a pre-test and a post-test. The exam must test for five workplace competencies plus three sets of foundation skills needed for solid job performance. The five competencies are: use and allocate resources, use interpersonal skills, use information, work with systems, and use technology. The foundation skills are: basic skills (reading, writing, mathematics, ext.) thinking skills (such as reasoning and problem solving), and personal qualities (including individual responsibility, and integrity). The test must be available in both English and Spanish and be available to be taken online with all information remaining on Department of Labor computers and must provide the unique reports that Job Corps educators require.
