ASSESSMENT CENTRE

METHODOLOGY

Assessment Centre methodology implies observing the participants whilst they carry out special tasks. The tasks are selected so that they could demonstrate qualities (competencies) requisite for successful performance in the occupied job position. The observing party evaluates competency development levels of the participants.

GOALS & OBJECTIVES

Evaluate levels of participant’s competencies development to support correct internal organisational decisions
Provide feedback to the participants to facilitate quality preparation and formulate a personal development plan

BASIC PRINCIPLES

For each job position there is a competency model ensuring successful performance
Participants’ tasks require / encourage to demonstrate their competencies
Competencies development levels are individual to different people
In the course of the task execution / game the participants demonstrate natural unrestrained behaviours
It is practically impossible to demonstrate a significantly higher level of competencies development than one de facto has

The competencies development levels are assessed by the expert observers
