Webinar 2015 - The Logic and Methodology of Assessment

Overview:
This webinar will explore how careful assessment will help organizational performance by improving hiring and promotion decisions. Starting with the "what" of assessment, we will examine the ingredients required for successful job performance in positions ranging from entry-level to senior executive. Next, we will explore the range of assessment tools available and how they work. This will help select an appropriate mix of assessment methodologies depending upon the position, budget, criticality and other factors. This will provide webinar participants with a wider array of options from which to choose as well as using assessment tools with greater precision.
Why should you attend: Your organization, or piece of it, is only as good as the people who staff it. This requires that you select well, ensuring that critical roles are filled with competent individuals who have both the skill and motivation to do their jobs well. Whether you are considering a hire from outside your organization or promoting someone into a new position, you want to maximize your probability of a correct prediction.
This webinar will explore state-of-the-art tools for optimizing selection and promotion decisions. We will explore the structure of competence and what predicts success at positions ranging from entry-level to senior executives. Next, we will explore the tools available to us and how assessment can minimize mistakes - as well as provide additional information that will be helpful in supervision and management.
