Abstract
This chapter reviews a collaborative effort to cross-pollinate and share work around chemistry assessments across several universities. The goal was to find ways to synthesize separate projects and capitalize on applying developed instruments and assessments beyond a single university, and in new situations, to increase scale and check for generalizability. Discussion of the successes and challenges of scale and transfer of the collaboration is detailed in this chapter.
