PPA (Personal Profile Analysis) Certification

ppa_white_0.png

Using four main profile factors: Dominance, Influence, Steadiness and Compliance, Thomas' Personal Profile Analysis (PPA) provides information on an assessment taker's fears, motivators, values and behavioral style.

In just 8 minutes, Thomas' behavioral assessment provides an accurate insight into how people behave at work, allowing you to maximize your learning and development budget, gain greater certainty when recruiting, and understand how to avoid staff turnover.

You are provided with an initial profile detailing a person’s strengths and limitations, their communication style, their value to the business, what motivates them, their basic fears and how they behave under pressure.

Once a PPA has been completed, you have instant access to 18 additional reports that enable you to match people to jobs, sift CVs, manage, coach, develop and train your people.

GIA (General Intelligence Assessment) Certification

The General Intelligence Assessment (GIA) measures an individual's aptitude in 5 key areas; Reasoning, Perceptual Speed, Number Speed and accuracy, Word Meaning, and Spatial Visualization.

The overall percentile is an estimate of a candidate's general intelligence while focusing on their response to training, mental processing speed, concentration, and fast-track potential.
