Assessment Centres
SIA provides a complete range of Assessment Centre design and delivery services, from competency matrix design through assessor training, exercise design and the provision of psychometric testing. We can also design and manage the whole process from scratch, either using our own established procedures and assessment tools, or by designing entirely new and organisationally relevant systems and exercises.
SIA assessment centres typically involve the participants completing a range of exercises which simulate the activities carried out in the target job. Various combinations of these exercises, and sometimes other assessment methods such as psychometric testing and interviews, are used to assess particular competencies in individuals.
This aids the process of predicting future job performance, as the individuals being developed carry out a set of tasks that accurately sample those required in the job, and are as similar to them as possible. The particular competencies used will depend upon the target job and will often include competencies such as relating to people, reactions to pressure, planning and organising, motivation, adaptability and flexibility, problem solving, leadership, communication, decision making and initiative.
