The College Board was founded in 1899 and develops and administers standardized tests as well as curricula for American education institutions. The Board is probably best known for the SAT and Advanced Placement Tests. The NAS report found that the Board worked closely with Hanban, the Chinese government agency that oversees Confucius Institutes, which have been targeted by the Trump administration as a threat to America.
