Following numerous requests from clients in Asia as well as internationally, PsyAsia International is pleased to announce the launch of Live Online Training for the Apollo Profile. PsyAsia has been offering online training since 2008 and started offering Live Online training in 2009 with our Psychometric Test Administration Course. We’ve received feedback from a large number of people that travelling to our accreditation training in Singapore or Hong Kong is difficult for one reason or another. In view of this we have created this online learning option for the Apollo Profile Personality Assessment.
For those without a background in psychometrics, you will need to attend our Psychometric Test Administration course in addition to the Apollo focussed training. However, the test admin course is available in recorded format in our online learning centre and will be offered complimentary (a saving of US$99) to all who register for the Apollo training. You may choose to view the test admin course before or after the Apollo training (we recommend before but this is not compulsory). For those who already have a test admin certificate or a BPS Level A certificate, you only need to attend the Apollo focussed training.
Full details can be found at:
http://www.psyasia.com/apollo_profile_accreditation_course.php
Registration is now open. To register, please do so at:
http://www.psyasia.com /register

You may also be interested in attending the free Apollo Profile webinar from Jim Bowden, the publisher on 17 May.

 PsychometricAssessment.com / PsyAsia International offer Free Psychometric Testing Course in Hong Kong & Singapore
Introduction to Psychometric Testing Course: Hong Kong, 4 May 2010; Singapore, 11 May 2010
PsyAsia International is Asia’s independent Leader in Psychometric Test products and Training. We choose to distribute only the world’s best, most validated psychometric assessments and offer locally relevant, world-class training in psychometrics. The Introduction to Psychometrics Workshop expands on PsyAsia’s expertise in Psychometric Training in Asia by offering a course geared to those with very little experience or understanding in Psychometrics. Many first time clients don’t understand why they need to be careful in their choice or use of psychometrics and many do not understand why training is a necessity in competent test use.
This one-day course aims to provide experienced-based training in an accessible and economical way. The course is easy to understand and yet covers many of the important issues to be aware of when choosing and using psychometric tests. Given our passion for Asia and our passion for the competent use of psychometric tests in Asia, PsyAsia makes no profit on this course. We charge delegates a small fee that reflects the cost of the hotel venue (including buffet lunch and refreshments) where the training is held as well as materials that we provide to the delegates. What’s more, if you later decide to attend one of our accreditation courses in Psychometrics, we will issue you with a discount code that reduces your course fee by the amount you paid for this course!

Introduction
PsyAsia International is pleased to announce an exceptional offer for those interested in learning psychometric test administration from the comfort of their office or home.
Why only US$12?
Some months ago PsyAsia International was chosen to become part of the panel of beta-testers for a new online training software. The beta program will end next month as the software is almost ready to go live. In view of this PsyAsia is now ready to use the software as our final stage in the beta program with our valued clients. For this reason, rather than charging the regular fee for our online psychometric test administration training course, we are offering similar training for just a $12 registration fee.
Your facilitator
PsyAsia International is well known for professional and competent training in Psychometrics. This course will be no different. It will be facilitated live by award-winning psychologist Dr. Graham Tyler.

Alternatively, you may choose to attend only the afternoon of the above training (which is mainly practical assessments) and pay only 50% of the published course fee. You will need to pay the BPS Assessment fee at the current rate if you wish to be assessed for the BPS certificate. A PsyAsia certificate will be presented to all attendees at the real-life course. Discount codes will be sent to eligible persons after the final training session.

How the training works
You will need a computer with a reasonable internet connection along with a microphone/headphone set. The training will be transmitted to your computer in slide form and live demo of various systems and websites related to psychometrics. The facilitator will use a mic to teach you. You will also have the opportunity to share with other attendees and ask questions either by way of your microphone or text chat.
Terms and Conditions
The training is open to anybody worldwide who is able to attend on all 3 days between 5pm and 6pm Singapore/Hong Kong time and who can satisfy ALL of the following:
1. Register with accurate data and a work email account
2. Pay the US$12 registration fee
3. Have a computer with an internet connection/headset and mic. However, you may choose to telephone in rather than use a mic/headphone. In this case you must be happy calling a number in USA, New Zealand or Australia. The number will be provided with your registration.
4. Must not be already trained in test administration or BPS Level A – this is because we want to give this opportunity to those who want to learn something new rather than those who may be more interested in finding out how our system works!
5. Must not be a competitor

Frequently asked questions about PsyAsia’s Psychometric Assessment at Work Course
which leads to the BPS Level A and B Certificates
With our wealth of experience in running these courses, PsyAsia has built up a knowledgebase of FAQs over the years. Please view our <a href=”" mce_href=”" Psychometric Assessment Training FAQs here:

What if the BPS Level A and B Certification is not for me?
Sure, the course is hard work and it is a long course (6 days!). At the end of the course you will be extremely confident about test use and will be
able to order just about any aptitude test on the market. You will be qualified to use the Identity Personality Questionnaire and the Apollo Profile (provided you sit the free Apollo Exam). However, this particular course is not for everyone! In view of this, PsyAsia – as Asia’s leading psychometric test training organisation – provides a range of other options:
