ETS’s Guiding Principle: Supporting Opportunities for All Learners
In 1947, our founders Harvard President James ─Conant and ETS’s first leader, Henry Chauncey ─envisioned an organization devoted to educational research and assessment, making fundamental contributions to the progress of education in the United States.
They believed a single organization devoted to research and testing could significantly advance education in the United States by expanding educational opportunity to include all learners, not just those with the resources and connections to pursue higher education.

Thomas Friedman: The World Is Flat
• Internet and inexpensive telecommunications and workflow software allowed digital work to be distributed around the globe.
• New business models (e.g., outsourcing, off-shoring) were developed based on this infrastructure.
• Wireless, Voice over Internet, and file sharing became the “steroids” for growth.

Disruptive Innovations
Christensen, Clayton M. (1997). The innovator's dilemma: When new technologies cause great firms to fail. Harvard Business Press.
"Generally, disruptive innovations were technologically straightforward, consisting of off-the-shelf components put together in a product architecture that was often simpler than prior approaches. They offered less of what customers in established markets wanted and so could rarely be initially employed there. They offered a different package of attributes valued only in emerging markets remote from, and unimportant to, the mainstream."

Unlocking the Gates: How and Why Leading Universities are Opening Up Access to Their Courses. (Taylor Walsh , Princeton University Press, 2011)
Confidential and Proprietary. Copyright © 2011 Educational Testing Service. All rights reserved.Confidential and Proprietary. Copyright © 2010 Educational Testing Service. All rights reserved.
• Unlocking the Gates is a splendid introduction to a fascinating and fast-changing world. Unless I am badly mistaken, over time all sectors of higher education will be affected in one way or another by what are truly transformational changes in the way knowledge is created and disseminated. Now that increasing numbers of universities, including some of the most prestigious, are using technology to let the world into their precincts, it will never be possible to lock the gates.”– William G. Bowen, President Emeritus, Princeton
