ITYPE Certification

Certification as an iTYPE Personality Consultant

A digital format for experienced and quick thinkers

iTYPE is a perceptual and objective personality test that allows HR experts, trainers, and coaches to detect the strengths of their co-workers or clients. The iTYPE certification is a complimentary tool for experienced trainers and coaches. Personnel developers can also use the Strength Profilers to make sure that employees are used to their full potential. If you have experience with different personality models and are interested in a test that's fast, simple, and culture-independent, then iTYPE may be the tool for you.

When you become certified,you will obtain deeper insight into the measurement procedure and how to interpret the iTYPE approaches. Having this knowledge is one of iTYPE’s main advantages. You can confidently use this information in your training, coaching, or even when selecting staff. From leadership development and sales training to relationship design and conflict management, iTYPE can be used for various topics.

This certification applies your existing knowledge of personality diagnostics to iTYPE's background. Hence, it is a comprehensive tool for developing client and organization-tailored concepts.

The certification process as a digital format:

Initially, you will be given access to view your own iTYPE profile, which will then be evaluated with a phone call or virtual meeting.
