In an innovative education the most effective means of controlling the assimilation of theoretical knowledge is a computer testing. By participating in the production of accrediting teaching measurement materials as part of the competition announced by National Accreditation Agency in the Field of Education, the departments of public health and healthcare and emergency medicine of RNRMU named after N. I. Pirogov mastered the technique of the development of test items for the test control in their disciplines. The methodology includes two main parts: the preparation of the content structure of the discipline and the development of the standardized test items. There should be ensured stylistic requirements and pedagogical equivalence of tasks. Prospects for the development of innovative forms of the educational process are largely dependent on the degree of use of computer-based testing, including a remote one.
