Competency assessment refers to a behaviourally based evaluation procedure which incorporates multiple assessment techniques and ratings of various competency related behaviours relevant to a particular job.
During a typical BIT competency assessment, participants complete a series of simulation exercises as well as a collection of psychometric assessments. These exercises and assessments are used to gather information regarding a participant’s job related competencies. The information is then incorporated into a detailed report for each participant and feedback is provided to the relevant manager and the participant. During the feedback session the participant’s strengths and development areas are highlighted in line with the competencies required for successful job execution.
