PPA discovering the professional work style

This is a two day course that will teach you the mechanics of the PPA system, what it can do for your people and how it can help your business. It explains the background and theory to the system and the terminology used. It equips you with practical skills such as how to read a PPA profile, how to give feedback to candidates, how you can modify your behaviour to manage your team, how and when to use the assessments, the reports available and how your organisation can benefit from using them.

Each delegate receives a pre and post course tutorial for which a Thomas consultant will visit your offices. The consultant will go into more detail on how to use PPA and answer any specific questions you may have. Your consultant will also work with you on a regular basis to help and support you to use PPA for all aspects of the employee lifecycle, including recruitment, retention, development and management.

GIA/TST

This one day course will train you to administer Thomas' two aptitude and ability tests: Tests for Selection and Training (TST) and the General Intelligence Test (GIA). The course gives a detailed overview of the tests themselves: the administration, how they are scored and how to interpret scores, what they measure (e.g. fluid intelligence), their applications (history and development) and the benefits of using them. It also uses case studies to explore how the tests can be used to benchmark people in your organisation.
