Learn to choose, use and interpret ability tests and personality questionnaires properly, and gain an industry-recognised EFPA qualification. Study online at your own pace, or have one of our psychologists run a group course at your premises.
Both routes cover the same course and lead to the same qualification. Pick the one that suits your diary and the way you like to learn.
Work through the modules whenever it suits you, from anywhere, with videos, workbooks and short knowledge checks along the way.
Learn alongside colleagues with one of our psychologists, practising with real tests, real reports and real feedback conversations.
Eight modules take you through the three levels: administering and scoring tests, then ability, then personality, finishing with our own tests. Open a module to see what it covers.
Administering tests correctly and consistently, looking after candidates fairly, and keeping test materials and results secure.
What ability tests measure, the different types of reasoning, and how ability relates to performance at work.
The main models of personality, how questionnaires measure it, and what results can and cannot tell you.
Norms, scores and score bands explained in plain terms, so you can read a report with confidence.
Reliability, validity and fairness: how to judge whether a test is good enough for your purpose.
Choosing the right test, using results alongside other evidence, and giving clear, constructive feedback.
Using our ability tests: the tests, their reports and how to interpret them.
Using our personality questionnaires: TDS, DDS, TDP, EIS and WDS, their reports and feedback.
