They gained deep insight into the different roles of the assessment team and actively participate in the interview and subsequent consolidation. We provide helpful tips and explain the connections so that what you have learned can be applied immediately.
We apply the “NPLF” evaluation scheme in practice and go into detail about the dependencies between the assessments. Together, we evaluate a specific situation and take into account the observed particularities.
We offer the opportunity to independently interview a process so that the techniques for surveys and notes are applied in practice.
This training is exclusively practical.
