Performance-Based Oral Assessment Centers

An Assessment Center consists of a standardized evaluation of an individual’s behavior through numerous observations by multiple assessors. Behavior assessments are derived, in part, from tailored simulation exercises.  These assessments are then consolidated by assessors specially trained for this purpose.
