Companies spend a huge amount of money on recruitment annually. Over the years, firms have realized that the process of recruitment needs to include psychometric and personality tests in order to analyze and evaluate the capability and personality of candidates

These tests provide nearly accurate results, enabling recruitment personnel to make better hiring decisions.

Employers, with the help of these tests, are better able to decide which personality type will be suitable for specific jobs.

Conducting such tests while hiring can reduce turnover and save valuable company resources.

By recruiting the right people the first time, firms can save themselves the task of recruiting and training the wrong people and then having to replace them.

This Course gives you an in depth understanding of the importance of using psychometric and personality tests in the field of business, providing employers a better way of recruiting and ensuring that potential employees are suitable for certain positions.

It also includes real life examples that can be used to measure the effectiveness of and implement personality and psychometric tests.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
