text_fields
New Delhi: The National Testing Agency (NTA) has invited Expressions of Interest (EoI) from experienced educators, researchers and academicians for empanelment as Subject Matter Experts (SMEs).
The initiative aims to strengthen pedagogical excellence, uphold academic integrity and ensure rigorous assessment standards for premier examinations conducted at the national level.
Under the empanelment process, selected SMEs will contribute to various stages of examination development and assessment.
The NTA is seeking experts who can help develop high-quality assessment material while ensuring that questions remain aligned with the prescribed syllabus and effectively assess candidates’ understanding and application of concepts.
A key area of responsibility will be item authoring and question design. The empanelled experts will also review and vet test items, examining questions for conceptual accuracy, clarity and appropriate difficulty levels to ensure that the assessment material meets required academic and examination standards.
Moderation will be another important responsibility. Through this process, SMEs will help maintain standardisation and neutrality in examination content.
The NTA is also seeking expertise in translation and transadaptation. Selected experts will be expected to provide accurate, culturally appropriate and linguistically sound translations of examination content into multiple regional languages.
The empanelment is open to serving or retired faculty members, professors, school educators and domain specialists with demonstrable expertise in their respective subjects.
The deadline for submitting the Expression of Interest is October 9.
Interested and eligible candidates can submit their EoI through the official NTA portal at nta.ac.in.
