E-assessment is More Than Test Creation
As the assessing part of eLearning, the tests creation and participation is just the method. We really need the test results of the e-assessment to evaluate how students learnt.

Sales Leads -- Quantity or Quality?
Sales leads come in two categories: High quality and not so high quality. The higher the quality, the more certain it is that the sales lead will result directly in a closed sale. Key question: Should you be going after quantity or quality?

Data Collection? Save Yourself the Trouble.
Why pay your consultant or internal project team to spend up front time collecting data that will only burn up hours (and fees) and inhibit the solution that you so sorely need? The time to collect data is during the assessment of the solution, not during the assessment of the problem.
Employee Testing and Assessments
According to the US Department of Labor all assessment tools used to make employment decisions are subject to professional and legal standards. For example, both the evaluation of a resume and the use of a highly standardized achievement test must comply with applicable laws. Assessment tools used solely for career exploration or counseling are usually not held to the same legal standards.
Key Ways to Convey Quality
Let’s say that what differentiates your product or service from the competition’s is quality. It may seem like advertising “quality” would be a breeze, right? Unfortunately, it’s not. Customers hear the word “quality” all the time –often from companies selling low-quality products. In this sense, quality is like trust. If a salesperson resorts to “You can trust me,” it’s often an indicator to beware. Accordingly, if a company is too direct in how it advertises “quality,” customers may ignore the claim or be suspicious of it. So how can you prove that your product or service is the real deal? Following are some often-overlooked ways to convey quality.

Benchmarking your Core Competencies
All organizations claim to have “core competencies” but few actually benchmark their capabilities to track and measure improvements over time. Take the time to evaluate your business from a high-level, and commit to continuous improvement. Use Demand Metric’s Core Competencies Assessment to set a baseline for your organization, and work to improve your score before your next self-assessment.
Risk Assessment & Analysis Techniques
Risk assessment is an area of concern for all senior executives, but many mid-sized enterprises do not have the skills, processes, or tools to effectively mitigate risks. Instead of reactively ‘fire-fighting’ and dealing with issues as they arise, consider adding simple risk assessment & analysis exercises to your project planning process. Download & customize Demand Metric’s Risk Assessment Tool, Risk Mitigation Checklist, and Risk Analysis (Fishbone) Tool, and add to your skills arsenal.
SEO Quality Vs SEO Quantity
We all know it; we've always known it and we'll tell our own clients and anyone who'll listen until we're blue in the interface. It's ALL about quality not quantity. Quality outs. Quality ins. It's the quality of your link neighbourhood that matters not the volume of inbound links that carries most weight in Google's take on relevance and, ultimately, your search placement.
Leaders Go First
The CLEMMER Group did an extensive assessment with a divisional manager to diagnose the strengths and weaknesses within his division and implement a major change and improvement process. Our assessment report showed that the problems in the division's customer service, quality, and productivity could be traced to one cause - the management team was dysfunctional. They were technicians and managers, not leaders. Their individual and collective leadership was weak. After reviewing the report with the division manager, we planned an off-site retreat with the management team to review the report and establish action plans.

The 360 Degree Trap
Many organizations use a 360 Degree Assessment to measure the effectiveness of leaders. I have always been a proponent of this method as it provides vital information required to improve leadership and build trust. There is a potential trap in this method if the assessment is strongly linked to compensation.
10 Reasons - Don't Worry When Sales Candidates Don't Take the Test
We instruct clients to have their sales candidates take the Sales Candidate assessment very early in the recruiting process. It's the first step after the client receives their resumes. Clients carefully spell out exactly how the entire process will work and explain that the assessment is simply the first step. Recent statistics show that only 34% of the candidates are taking the assessment without additional prompts. Isn't that awful? Maybe - let's explore it further. We should consider that the following ten scenarios are all possible reasons why candidates fail to complete the assessment:
