For those who wish to use cognitive or vocational assessments in connection with, for example, recruitment, self-awareness or talent development.
As well as taking the Business Skills Test yourself, you will also receive three sample analyses.
Before the online training session itself, which will be led by one of our qualified instructors, you will complete a 1½-hour e-learning module.
By the end of the course, you will be able to set up a business-oriented test, send out invitations to complete it, interpret the results and provide feedback.
Here are 3 modules spread over 2 weeks.
