Observer Skills Training for Assessment Centres Assessor training

The Assessor Skills Training course aids job profiling within assessment centres. Assessors play a vital role in competency assessment and development. It is therefore important that they can effectively observe and evaluate candidates. The course trains assessors and observers to ensure that they have the knowledge, skills, and attributes needed to effectively fulfil their role. Completion of this course will enable your assessment centre Assessors to be competent to evaluate candidates' behaviour effectively with both professionalism and confidence. 

This Assessor Skills Certification course has been designed for all types of assessment or development centre. This includes those used for high volume recruitment as well as higher-level strategic and technical roles. Our very own Max Choi was a Co-convener of the British Psychological Society (BPS) 'Assessment Centre Standards' Working Group who wrote the BPS Assessment Centre Standard. Max is an expert in aligning best practices to the new Standard.

The complete programme includes the following 3 modules:

1. INTRODUCTION TO ASSESSMENT CENTRES
2. SKILLS OF ASSESSMENT
3. ASSESSMENT CENTRE PROCEDURES

The Standard covers both assessment & development centres and takes an evidence based approach utilising the latest research findings. This course will ensure that your assessors are professionally trained and to have the competence to act as an effective assessor.  This will greatly help your organisation run effective assessment centres and to make the right people decisions.

What's Covered

Our psychologists have developed this course based on the competency framework outlined by the British Psychological Society’s (BPS). It therefore covers all elements of their assessment centre standard, including:

  • Understanding what makes an effective assessment centre.
  • The role of an assessor and other roles within an assessment centre.
  • Effective evaluation of assessment centre exercises.
  • How to observe, record, classify, evaluate, and give feedback effectively.
  • How to be competent to evaluate performance against pre-determined job-related behaviours.
  • Equality and diversity.

Aligned to the ORCEF Training Model:

  • Observe – observe the candidate
  • Record – make notes on what is said and done, and other behaviours e.g. non-verbal behaviours.
  • Classify – classify their behaviours into the agreed assessment criteria e.g. if an assessment criteria is Team Working what behaviours did you note that provides evidence of effective team working?
  • Evaluate – we then give each assessment criteria a rating. So for Team Working we give them a score e.g. from 0 – 5.
  • Feedback – We provide quality feedback. This can be to the Recruiting Manager and/ or to the candidate.
