Project Management and Business Analysis
Assessment Tools for the Individual

With ESI’s Project Management and Business Analysis Appraise tools you can evaluate your own training needs and then select the professional development programme that will benefit both yourself and yield the highest return for your training budget.

Your own development needs and requirements for job performance are typically broken into three areas: knowledge, skills and abilities.

Knowledge and skills are elements that are taught in educational and training programmes and focus on the content areas of a job.

Abilities, generally, are personal characteristics that are refined over time by the individual’s actual performance of his or her job. Although behaviours may be learned in a classroom setting, making them second nature usually takes time, practice and experience.

PMAppraise logo

PMAppraise® is a complete assessment tool that:

  • Measures knowledge of project management best practices
  • Compiles a comprehensive report that provides an overall picture of any knowledge gaps
  • Offers an accompanying resource guide that recommends appropriate courses and books

The convenient, online assessment consists of 120 multiple-choice questions that cover the nine knowledge areas of the PMBOK® Guide plus the professional responsibility domain. The assessment takes about three hours to complete.

After completion, the assessment is scored automatically and the results are sent to the individual. For 30 days after completing PMAppraise®, you have online access to the report that shows all areas needing improvement.

If a project team is completing the assessment (see Corporate Solutions), the group summary report from ESI is available to provide a “snapshot” of a team’s knowledge and skill performance.
