The key human resource talent of modern times is to get the right people, retain them and develop their leadership capabilities and utilize their potential for the future. Internal promotions, development of leadership and other capabilities have been found to be the most needed competencies for running an organization.

Assessment and Development Centers use multiple assessment methods like tests, interviews, role plays etc and multiple assessors in an effort to elicit patterns of behavior previously identified as successful in management positions.

Objectives of the course
Competency Mapping Skills, Competency Assessment skills, Skills to identify, develop and select appropriate tools and ADC design and management skills: How to design and conduct low cost ADC’s.
