Research has been conducted on how to conduct remote assessments (tele-assessments) in a reliable and valid way. Parallel conducts tele-assessments in alignment with the research support, taking extra care to ensure valid results. As long as a student has a good internet connection and a quiet and private space on their side, tele-assessment data are a valid reflection of their current functioning.
