I.   TESTS VS. ASSESSMENTS

1. Tests are Pass/Fail while Assessments are Informative.
2. Assessments provide information to make better decisions. Properly constructed assessments measure (assess) an individual’s attributes and accurately describe those attributes. Note: they must be “reliable” and “valid” – refer to the Department of Labor’s Guidelines on Employee Selection and Testing.

When a person’s attributes are known, they can be compared to the qualities required by a particular job or profession. Thus, Job Match can be achieved.

1. You cannot fail Who You Are. No one ever fails an assessment.
