NORWALK, CT - April 27, 2006 - Users of the QuestionmarkTM PerceptionTM assessment management have a new system for sharing content with one another.
With the beta release of Questionmark SWAP (Sharing With Assessment Professionals), members of the company's software support plan can sign up as content publishers or users. Content users can search a database to locate appropriate test items, and publishers may, at their discretion, provide access to their content on a global or case-by-case basis.
The system leverages new features within Questionmark Perception that make it easier than ever to publish, share and import items. These include a simple drag and drop interface for publishing and manage assessment content. SWAP members can connect with each through an exclusive online community designed for quick identification of useful content. An online forum enables users to ask for content that they do not readily find within the database. Complete information about SWAP including animated tutorials can be found at

Questionmark's growing community of users comes from organizations of all types and sizes, representing the academic, business, non-profit and government sectors. To celebrate the launch of SWAP, Questionmark will award an Apple iPod nano each month for the next 3 months to recognize the customers who make the best assessment content contributions.
