Sandra Wilson, B.A., B.Ed.

Psychometrist

Before starting a second career as a psychometrist, Sandra worked as a teacher, special education/resource teacher, enrichment teacher, speech and language resource teacher, and educational diagnostician within school boards. Her role at Dr. Deb Fitzpatrick and Associates as a contract psychometrist is administering tests for children and adolescents with suspected learning disorders or giftedness. A psychometrist serves a similar role as a lab technician does for a physician. A psychometrist administers and scores the selected tests, then the psychologist interprets, generates profiles, opinions, diagnoses (if there are any) and makes recommendations.
