ASSESSING & STRUCTURED INTERVIEWING PROGRAMMES
Assessment is only as good as the assessors
PROBLEM
The accuracy and fairness of any assessment can only ever be as good as the quality and effectiveness of the assessors. With this in mind, ensuring that any assessors, including interviewers, used within a selection process are properly trained and skilled should be the first priority but is often overlooked leading to challenges and perceptions of unfairness from candidates.
SOLUTION
Our assessor and structured interviewing learning programmes have been designed to combine the underpinning theoretical knowledge with practical experience to enable individuals to make fair, objective and evidence-based assessment decisions in line with best practice.
T
PRODUC
We offer three different programmes designed to meet the specific needs of the organisation as well as complement the assessor training requirements set out in British Psychological Society’s ‘Standards on the design and delivery of Assessment Centres’ and the International Standard 10667.
Key benefits these programmes include:
• Increasing the accuracy of assessment decisions – identifying the right people, first time
• Reducing the possibility of unconscious bias impacting on assessment decisions
• Improving the candidate experience and their perceptions of the assessment
• Producing accessible and meaningful feedback to support their on-going personal development
These programmes have also been designed to provide evidence of Continuous Professional Development (CPD) for learners.
