Overview:

How can you make sure you have the right people with the correct skills, abilities and personality to fit your organisation?

By combining our ‘Assessment Centre Development’ and ‘Psychometric Testing’ courses, you will gain a comprehensive understanding of the latest techniques used to assist with your recruitment and development needs.

The use of assessment techniques enables you to search for the particular skills and values that your organisation needs. Research has shown that assessment centres based around competency-focused exercises are the most accurate predictor of future performance.

Complex assessment techniques and business psychology play a vital part in recruitment and development strategies of many successful organisations and that’s why our Assessment Centre Development programme is designed to assist you with your recruitment needs by providing you with the tools and know how to assess the competence of your candidates for development and recruitment purposes as well as providing you with a thorough grounding in the use of psychometric assessment in the workplace.

There are no grueling ‘end-of course tests’ and, although there is a little calculation involved, it is kept at a pragmatic level. Some of the leading business psychologists in the UK who have worked all over the world in the
specialist field of human assessment deliver the programme.
