Employees who would be working on specific aircraft had to undertake and pass a demanding and costly training course, however their pass rates were sitting at around 68% . The company wanted to improve this pass rate to justify the expense of recruiting and training their new recruits.  \nSolution  \nThe company decided to start using a cognitive aptitude assessment to get an accurate measure of each candidate’s cognitive ability, which is also known as general mental ability (GMA). After consultation, they began using the cognitive aptitude assessment as a screening tool and would only progress candidates who scored above a specific level on the assessment.  \nResults  \nAfter adopting the cognitive aptitude assessment, the training pass rate increased from 68% to 92%, which represented an increase of 35% . These vastly improved training pass rates resulted in significant time and money savings for the company.  \nThe company started using the cognitive aptitude tests as a critical step in their hiring process and would only advance candidates who demonstrated a sufficiently high level of aptitude. This in turn led to significant cost savings and more qualified and productive employees.  \nAssessments  \nCognitive Aptitude Test  \nTraining Pass Rate  \n\n| 92% |\n| --- |\n| 68% |\n|  |\n|  |\n| Before Testing After Testing\u003Cbr>|\n| Increase pass rate of 35% after aptitude assessment adoption |\n\nCognitive aptitude, sometimes called general intelligence or g, is the single most accurate predictor of future job performance. Tests of cognitive aptitude assess abilities that are critical to almost all jobs, including problem-solving ability, critical thinking, attention to detail, and the ability to learn, digest and apply new information.  \nWe offer a broad range of cognitive aptitude tests including the traditional Criteria Cognitive Aptitude Test (CCAT), game-based assessments Cognify and GAME, as well as more specialised tests such as the Criteria Attention Skills Test (CAST) and the Criteria Mechanical Reasoning Assessment (CMRA).  \nINDUSTRY  \nAviation  \nOBJECTIVE  \nImprove Training Completion  \nSOLUTION  \nCognitive Aptitude Assessment  \nRESULTS  \nImproved Training Pass Rates  \nThe company increased pass rates for a required training course by selecting employees with higher cognitive aptitude test scores.  \n[www.criteriacorp.com.au](www.criteriacorp.com.au)  \n[apac.sales@criteriacorp.com](apac.sales@criteriacorp.com)  \n©Criteria Corp. 2021","cbCaievdXVaMec1C","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaievdXVaMec1C","pdf",91497,"English","# Challenge\n## Current recruitment and training pass rates\n# Solution\n## Cognitive aptitude assessment as screening\n# Results\n## Pass rate increase and cost/time savings\n# Assessments\n## Cognitive aptitude test and related products","[{\"question\":\"What problem did the aviation employer face with the existing recruitment process?\",\"answer\":\"The employer was disappointed by the calibre of employees hired, since a demanding aircraft training course had pass rates around 68%.\"},{\"question\":\"What solution did the company implement to improve outcomes?\",\"answer\":\"The company used a cognitive aptitude assessment (general mental ability, GMA) as a screening tool and progressed only candidates scoring above a specific threshold.\"},{\"question\":\"How much did training pass rates improve after adopting cognitive aptitude assessments?\",\"answer\":\"Training pass rates increased from 68% to 92%, representing an increase of 35%, leading to significant time and money savings.\"}]","CriteriaAPAC Case Study - Aviation Cognitive Aptitude Assessment - Training Pass Rate Increase | PDF"]
