  8. Different Purposes, Different Products

  9. Introduction to PRODUCT Development

  10. A Scientific Approach to Product Development With the assistance of key stakeholders we create a globally recognized certification product by following the accredited development stages: Stage 1: Signed proposal and initial meeting with Scheme Owners Stage 2: Identify References & Establish Scope Stage 3: Establish full Sub-Scheme Committee Stage 4: Draft Certification Requirements and Job Analysis Survey Stage 5: Conduct Job Analysis Survey Stage 6: Finalize any CUs/Test Specifications Stage 7: Exam Development Stage 8: Final review and approval Stage 9: Publication

  11. KNOWLEDGE EXAMINATION

  12. Exam Development Process Supporting any certification product is the ability to rigorously design, develop, and deliver knowledge assessments. Our worlds best practice approach utilizes the following psychometric* principles: Step 1: Job Analysis Step 2: Item Writing Step 3: Item Review / Form Pilot and Review Step 4: Cut Score Study Step 5: Equating Process *psychometrics is the field of study concerned with the theory and technique of psychological measurement, which includes the measurement of knowledge, abilities, attitudes, personality traits, and educational measurement. The field is primarily concerned with the construction and validation of measurement instruments such as questionnaires, tests, and personality assessments.

  13. Skill Examination

  14. Individual completes required training Individual submits application with evidence Skill brings together a persons learnt knowledge, and experiences and delivers an outcome to a defined work process, job task or skilful activity. Skill examination is the assessment of a persons application of knowledge in a real world or simulated setting. By observing a persons actions we can see how their personal attributes affect the application on knowledge in a skilful manner. Staff arranges for Skill Examination between applicant and Examiner Examiner performs On-The-Job Examination against Job Task List Examiner confirms the practical application of knowledge Examiner reports outcomes of skill examination to staff for certification fulfilment

  15. PERSONAL ATTRIBUTE ASSESSMENT

  16. Personal attributes measure a persons attitude to their surroundings, work and relationships. Often a persons attributes can mean the difference between a valued service, a safe work environment, a caring manner, and a request to return or continue & complete a job task. Attributes often predict a trait, level of risk, or potential to succeed. Tools include personality profiling, risk analysis, and job fit analysis. We offer: • PAAS Master; assessment of ethics, and professional qualities • Exemplaar; assessment of leadership qualities • Risk Compass; assessment of personal risk behaviors • Hogan FIT Analysis; assessment of desired personal qualities to discreet job functions
