Calibrand the currency for talent ® provides e-assessment solutions that assess, monitor, measure, benchmark, track and test people during periods of employment and training. With ISO 9001 certification to the TickIT 5.5 standard and a track record spanning over 20 years, Calibrand provides software, consultancy and exam development expertise to government agencies, education awarding bodies, financial services companies, corporates, academia, IT and not-for-profit organisations. Calibrand's software helps organisations to verify product knowledge, continuing professional development, licensing/certification, lifelong learning, citizenship and staff recruitment. Assessment workflows, such as marking and administration are simplified with Calibrand Marker, a management tool that reduces many of the inefficiencies associated with paper-based assessment, such as script handling. The integration of supporting evidence for CPD, learning paths or evidence based qualifications is performed by Calibrand e-Portfolio. Calibrand's in-house exam and question development consultancy unit helps customers to build new qualifications, exams and questions, as well as perform reviews and reporting for psychometric validity and defensibility - critical for all exam programme owners and stakeholders. Calibrand innovates by developing solutions such as the HI-STAK® portable assessment unit that comes to a business premises, college or other location to examine candidates on-line. Calibrand also forms best-of-breed partnerships with organisations such as the Scottish Qualifications Authority (SQA) to develop qualifications that meet the needs of industry, students and customers. Calibrand's SQA accredited Level 4 qualification (Diploma in Professional Financial Advice) is a market leader which brings several innovations to the market, including free on-line training materials and test centre provision.
