NNTIB原型已经在伯明翰的亚拉巴马大学医学院开发和实施。在1983年非洲国家银行理事会会议期间举行的一次讲习班上审议了进一步发展该银行作为国家共享资源的问题。通过这一论坛,确认了NNTIB的概念是有效和可行的,得到了各种营养教育工作者的支持和ASCN营养教育委员会的认可。讲习班与会者的一般性建议是,应将测试项目库原型的修改作为建立国家数据库的模式。一项关键建议是成立一个委员会,监督NNTIB所列测试项目的验收和审查。认识到国家银行发展的主要制约因素可能是后勤、机械和财政,我们相信,如果银行被一个长期承诺继续支持和发展的母社会所接受,那么每一个限制因素都可以克服。在确定了这种支持并进行了试点试验之后,营养、食品和基础设施国家委员会对营养领域进步的影响远远超出了提高测试材料的质量,并扩展到建立营养教育标准和资格认证的关键领域。NNTIB的发展对营养教育工作者、国家营养组织和有关政府机构的参与和支持提出了挑战。
A NNTIB prototype has been developed and implemented at the University of Alabama in Birmingham School of Medicine. The further development of the Bank as a shared national resource was considered at a workshop carried out in conjunction with the 1983 ASCN meeting. Through this forum it was confirmed that the concept of a NNTIB is both valid and viable, receiving the support of a variety of nutrition educators and the endorsement of the ASCN Committee on Nutrition Education. The general recommendations of the workshop participants were that a modification of the test-item bank prototype be used as the model for the development of a national bank. A key recommendation was the development of a committee to oversee the acceptance and review of test items included in the NNTIB. Recognizing that the major constraints in the development of a national bank are likely to be logistical, mechanical, and fiscal, it is our belief that each of the limitations could be overcome if the Bank were adopted by a parent society with a long-term commitment to its continued support and development. After such support has been identified and pilot trials have been carried out, the implications of the NNTIB for advances in the field of nutrition go well beyond improved quality of testing materials and extend into the critical area of the establishment of standards of nutrition education and certification of competency. The development of the NNTIB offers a challenge to nutrition educators, national nutrition organizations, and interested governmental agencies for their involvement and support.
