Aptitude Assessment & Ability Testing
Aptitude assessment and ability testing are an accurate and reliable predictor of a person's development potential - how quickly they can learn and retain new skills and procedures. Thomas' ability assessment and aptitude testing predict a person's potential.

Why use aptitude and ability testing?
Academic achievement whilst undoubtedly playing a large part in selection and decisions is not a truly effective measure of a person's mental ability and potential. TST/GIA is an ability test rather than an intelligence test and includes a series of assessments such as reasoning, perceptual speed, number speed and accuracy, spatial visualisation and word meaning.
TST and GIA can provide answers to questions such as:
-
Can this person think on their feet?
-
Can they cope with the mental demands of the job?
-
Could this person be a high flyer?
-
Is this person a problem solver?
-
To what degree can this person respond to training?
