Talk about testing - especially in schools and in clinical settings - and people certainly know the Pearson brand. Its wide range of assessments are comprehensive, and to the uninitiated, just a little bit daunting: there are so many products, most of them clinical, that for the workplace it is very difficult to wend your way through the maze of products and understand what services best suit HR needs.
Nevertheless, Pearson Assessments does offer personality testing for people in public service jobs, assessments for career guidance, and Scantron which is a data scanning service for large-scale testing.
Pearson Assessments is a business of Pearson Education, the world’s largest integrated education company, which in turn is part of Pearson (NYSE: PSO), the international media company. Pearson’s other primary operations include the Financial Times Group and the Penguin Group.
