Form And Line ReferencePart I, Line 2:FormAndLineReferenceDesc
ExplanationEducational Testing Service requires applicants for scholarships to provide transcripts and other information upon which they are evaluated. During Fiscal Year 2018,scholarship funds were made payable directly to the university or college that the awarded recipient attends or made payable to both the institution and the student. The ETS Center for Advocacy and Philanthropy, a division of ETS that manages ETS's contributions, has established criteria for making grants and other contributions. It also maintains records to substantiate the amount of grants or in-kind contributions, as well as the grantees eligibility for the grants. IRS Form W-9 is requested from all organizations to ascertain the legal name, EIN or Taxpayer Identification Number and address. ETS typically maintains close contact with its grantees to monitor their progress in the use of funds and, whenever feasible, the extent to which the funded program met its objectives. Small contributions (under $2,000) are sometimes made to 501(c)(3) organizations to promote volunteerism and philanthropy among employees at ETS. ETS monitors the use of funds in several ways: (1) requests written reports on the use of restricted funds and the organization's annual report when the grant is unrestricted; (2) for sponsored events, such as conferences and workshops, ETS requests programs and other materials prepared for the event; (3) staff members attend a number of sponsored events so that there is direct observation; (4) ETS remains in contact with grant recipients via email, phone calls and face-to-face meetings; and (5) ETS obtains copies of any research papers that might be developed as a result of the grant.ExplanationTxt

Form 990, Line 1, Box G - Gross ReceiptsThe primary driver for the increase in gross receipts as shown on Form 990, Page 1, Box G is related to the gain on the sale of ETS Holdings Inc and Subsidiaries and the subsequent investment gains from the proceeds.
Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 4The following significant change was made to ETS' Corporate ByLaws effective October 27, 2017. Formation of Committee of the Whole. This committee shall consider and deliberate major, broad issues identified as relevant and essential to the effective governance and of significant import to ETS.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11bAll Trustees receive a copy of Form 990 for review and information prior to Board of Trustees meeting. Form 990 is reviewed by the Board of Trustees' Audit Commitee and the full Board of Trustees.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12cThe Trustees of Educational Testing Service, individually and collectively, are expected to act in accordance with the highest standards of ethical behavior. Annually, the Audit Committee reviews the ETS Code of Ethics for Members of the Board of Trustees. Subsequently, each Trustee receives a copy of the Code of Ethics and signs a statement agreeing to abide by the Code. The Code of Ethics states a clear policy on conflicts of interest. ETS also has a conflict of interest policy that is supplied to the Board of Trustees, officers and key employees. The Trustees annually complete a Trustee Disclosure Statement and a Trustee Affiliation Form. The Disclosure Statement requests information regarding whether any Trustee has material financial interest to which ETS is a party. The Affiliation Form requests information regarding the Trustees employment as a staff member or as a consultant of ETS, as well as their affiliation with other organizations. The Corporate Secretary reviews these disclosures for potential conflicts or the potential appearance of a conflict. Should a situation be disclosed that presents a potential conflict, the Corporate Secretary would seek resolution with the involvement of the appropriate authority such as the Audit Committee or the ETS General Counsel and Chief Ethics Officer. Intrinsic to the policy is a Trustee recusing themselves on certain matters or resigning from the Board to prevent a conflict of interest or avoid an appearance of a conflict of interest. Failure to respond to the annual disclosure process would result in the requisite follow up by the Corporate Secretary. Candidates for Trustees receive general information on relevant ETS policies, such as the Code of Ethics and Conflict of Interest and are required to complete the Affiliations Form prior to standing for election. Trustees can obtain assistance with the interpretation or administration of the Code of Ethics conflicts policy or procedures from the Corporate Secretary or the General Counsel and Chief Ethics Officer. Trustees receive the complete policy statements upon their election. Educational Testing Service requires that employees, including officers, who are uncertain whether an outside activity comes within the scope of ETS's Code of Ethics or Conflict of Interest policy, discuss the matter with their supervisors. Employees wishing to engage in outside activities must submit an Outside Activities Report to their division Vice President for review and approval prior to engaging in the activity. Employees must submit an amended report whenever the activity changes. The report is reviewed and the employee is informed whether the request is approved. The employee's division Vice President and the Vice President of Human Resources (HR) receive a copy of all such reports regardless of whether the request is approved. Any situation involving a potential conflict of interest must be reviewed by HR to verify that no conflict exists. Any employee who acquires information that gives the employee reason to believe that any employee, officer or trustee is engaged in conduct that is prohibited by ETS's Code of Ethics or subject to ETS's Conflict of Interest policy, or that any sales representative, distributor or other person or firm representing ETS in any transaction is engaged in the type of conduct (whether or not in connection with a transaction involving ETS or its products) which, if engaged in by an employee, would violate this policy is required to report this information immediately. All complaints regarding potential conflicts of interest are investigated promptly, and where necessary, immediate and appropriate action is taken to stop and remedy any such conduct. Any employee or officer, found in violation of this policy will be subject to disciplinary action, up to and including termination, depending upon the severity of the violation. This policy is reviewed on an annual basis by the Vice President of Human Resources. All ETS employees receive a copy of the Code of Ethics on an annual basis. The annual review and signature indicating their agreement to comply with the policy is mandatory as part of employment with ETS.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15ETS engages an external Independent Executive Compensation Consultant Organization (IECCO) to review and advise on worker compensation laws.
