"Thank you so much for an enjoyable and informative two days at the assessment course last week. You built an environment in which I felt comfortable that the feedback that I receive will be positive and balanced. It was one of the best Nortel courses that I have been on, please pass my thanks to all of the resources and assessors involved."

Catherine Bailey, P.A. to V.P., Nortel Europe

Do you have impartial, objective information about a person's skills related to a role or the person's personal attributes that can give a guide on their potential? Would it help your employees to have an independent measure so they can make informed decisions about their readiness for a role and what they would need to do to meet the role requirements? Would such impartial objective information help you make some decisions about the importance and urgency of training or development actions or processes and the strategic approach to the organisation's operational learning needs?Knowing what you have and what you lack is crucial to making informed decisions so that resources – human and financial – are not wasted, thus improving operational performance and the bottom line. Knowing whether a person can or cannot do a particular role or what investment would be required to equip the person to do the role is crucial to selection decisions, whether recruiting externally or internally, to minimise cost and maximise the return on investment. Over the past twelve years the partners of LEARNING partners have built expertise in the design and implementation of a variety of assessment events. We have designed and run assessment centres for selection, assessment centres for development, development centres that rest on self-assessment, one to one assessment (using both in-depth interviewing techniques and psychometric tests) and personality profiling. Core to this has been giving companies the in-house expertise that spins off into other processes such as training needs analysis, performance management and selection.
