Behavioral Assessments &
Profiling
New advances in technology and new forms of workplace have
redefined the nature and level of the essential skills and knowledge required
to be successful in the organization. Most students will spend almost
two-thirds of their lives in a diverse and constantly changing workplace.
Regardless of personal, career, or educational plans, students must demonstrate
proficiency both in academics and certain established workplace standards.
Student acquisition of critical workplace skills, with an emphasis on
application, is a developmental process which encompasses an individual’s
entire lifetime. The demonstration of these skills is essential for individuals
as employees and contributes to the foundation of an educated citizenry of a
nation.
The global economy has shifted the dialogue from concern about
students' performance on norm - referenced, conventional paper-and-pencil
assessments to criterion-referenced measures of a set of "new basics“ that
include students' use of technologies and soft skills such as problem solving,
teamwork, and effective interpersonal communications. The competency based
framework to educational and career assessment provides a common language and
understanding of the new basic—or foundation—skills needs of the young
workforce. It is thus important for engineering / management students to be
aware and improve their marketability in an ever volatile job market.
Understanding their competencies in terms of the job functions and industries
that they will enter will enable them to make informed career decisions.
Eduquity offers Engineering and Management students a
behavioural assessment program that will give the students, a discerning edge
in the job market. The conceptual framework is drawn from similar work that
Eduquity has done over five years with a leading Management institution in
Bangalore and Eduquity’s extensive experience in competency based assessment in
the corporate sector.
