[IPAC-List] Session for IPAC? Communication of confidential materials over distances

[Reed, Elizabeth]

A lot of us in the assessment field work on test development projects with developers and/or reviewers who are off-site. Sometimes off-site is someone working at home, but in the same city. Sometimes off-site is on the other side of the country or on another continent.  I'm interested in learning about methods people have used to communicate test confidential information with people in remote locations while ensuring the confidential nature of the materials. I'm interested in learning about as many of the options as possible and the pros and cons of each (including costs, level of security, ease of use).

Some of the methods we've used or discussed include:

*         Secure websites

*         Password protected and/or encrypted documents sent via email

*         Shipping hard copies

*         Fax

*         Phone calls

*         WebEx or other similar

*         Personal delivery to location

Here are my questions:

1)      Is this a topic of interest to others?

2)      Is there anyone out there who would be willing to conduct or help with a session on this topic?

Thanks, Liz
