The Process In Getting A Disc Assessment Certification

By Charles Graham


If you are a manager or a business owner, it is important that you understand how each of your employees differ and how they can contribute to the organization. Getting certified in administering assessments, such as the DISC assessment certification, will give you more tools in knowing how to lead your organization better.

To find out if this is the right profile classification tool for your organization, you need to understand the basics of this system. This was created by William Moulton Marston and it was an application of his behavior theory that is based on four personality traits. The evaluation will be based on how a person responds to challenges, influences, rules and pace of work.

The four classifications for this profile evaluation are Dominance, Influence, Steadiness, and Conscientiousness. A person will need to answer a questionnaire that classifies their behavior under each classification. This will determine what type of tasks suit them and the type of work environment in which they will thrive.

To better understand this profile system, take the evaluation yourself. Assess the results if they match similar profile assessments that you have taken in the past. Does the result reflect how you perceive yourself? Did it reveal something about yourself that you could not explain before? Will your company benefit from the same evaluation?

Determine the type of certificate that you will need. Consider the needs of your company and your role in addressing behavioral issues. You may also ask for advice of other leaders in the company. You can also seek the opinion of people with similar accreditations to find out how those are working for them.

You have to schedule time every week to attend classes. This will be done for four weeks prior to the examination. Classes may either be offline or online. Regardless of which you choose, these are still instructor-led and with predetermined schedules. There will also be some self-paced study.

After four weeks of instructor-led study, you have to take the test. Exams are also being scheduled so make sure that you include the exam schedule into your calendar. Determine how this profile system can be applied into your organization and how it can help in resolving conflicts, so that you will be better prepared for your exam.

The cost of the certification can greatly influence your choice in the type of certificate that you would like to get. Generally, the online classes and exams cost less than the offline ones. Be sure to register for your desired schedule early, since class slots are limited to around twenty. If you already bought your copy of the Workplace Facilitation Kit, you may also be given a discount by the administrator.

While there are many profile assessments that you can use for your employees, the DISC assessment is still one of the most popular ones. This could be because of how close it is in predicting a person's workplace performance. Then, as a leader you will have a guide on how you can develop this person to become better.
