The Online Platform

The psychometric tests or tools, made available through the online platform, are designed to shed light on areas or aspects that are associated with work performance. The tests cover domains such as personality, attitudes, intellectual capability, stress tolerance and so on. They are multilingual, and the norm groups (comparison groups) are comprised of seagoing personnel. Before being granted access to each tool, a test user in the company will have to undergo a certification process with training in psychometric test theory as well as interpretation of specific test results.
