This test assesses the following Key Leadership Competencies (KLCs):

The test also assesses the following EPSI competency:

During the test, you will play the role of an employee from a fictitious organization and review information on the organization (for example, organizational chart, job description). You will be presented with 13 situations encountered in a first-level management position. For each situation, you will respond to a series of multiple choice questions by selecting the most appropriate statement to resolve the situation, for a total of 70 questions.
The situations can involve several topics such as client satisfaction, employee or immediate supervisor requests, as well as procedures and workload. Your decisions and answers must be based on the circumstances stated in the information and scenarios given in the test.
