Knowledge and Competency Assessment (Compass)
What is Compass?
Compass is a Competency Assessment tool for Project Professionals. It provides self-assessment validated with 180 and 360 degree assessments from line managers, peers, suppliers and customers.
Compass is based on the APM Competence Framework and it enables project and programme managers to assess themselves against 47 competences in Technical, Behavioural and Contextual domains.
It is an online solution, with 180° and 360° feedback allowing individuals and organisations to benchmark themselves against the IPMA international standards. It can be deployed immediately in its standard format, or can be tailored to suit an existing competence framework that you may have.
Why choose this method of Assessment?
Compass is based on recognised standards and enables benchmarking of results internally within an organisation and outside in the wider profession. Your results can be validated by a Line Manager and peers and so can form part of an annual appraisal process. The output from Compass is a comprehensive report showing your results and also a tailored personal development plan indicating areas that you may wish to carry out further learning and development.
