Certified Assessor Course

Our Certified Assessor Course prepares HR professionals, line managers, and consultants to competently conduct assessment and development center exercises by equipping them with the skills to observe behavior objectively, apply standardized rating scales, avoid bias, and provide evidence-based evaluations.


The program typically covers assessor roles and responsibilities, behavioral observation techniques, competency-based frameworks, scoring and calibration, and delivering structured feedback.


By completing the certification, participants become qualified to act as assessors in recruitment, promotion, and development contexts—ensuring fairness, reliability, and validity in the assessment process.
