Where in the T&EO do we find additional criteria to make a final assessment of task proficiency?

• A. Scoring Rubric
• B. Standards
• C. Final Checklist
• D. Task List

Answer: (B)

Standards set the official, objective criteria that determine whether task performance meets the required level. When making a final assessment of proficiency, you measure what was done against these standards to see if the observable actions, decisions, and results meet the defined thresholds and quality requirements. This creates a consistent baseline across evaluators and scenarios.

A scoring rubric translates those standards into a score, rating how well performance aligns with the criteria, but it’s a scoring tool rather than the standard itself. A final checklist lists steps that must be completed, ensuring nothing is missed, while a task list enumerates tasks to perform; neither defines the proficiency thresholds used to judge overall success.
