What is Validate?

Validate is a software system that assesses knowledge of any topic you care to define and therefore is a tool for confirming knowledge. Confirming knowledge is a fundamental or business efficiency and improvement.

When you can truly confirm knowledge, you can improve skills - which is the end goal of assessment. Business improvement hinges on "We want to improve, so we need to know where we are at." VALIDATE provides that knowledge and certainty.

THE problem

The problem that Validate solves is one of Management's biggest challenges: "How do I know what our employees ACTUALLY KNOW?" Because management's key role is to get work executed by others, they need people who can do the job.

People who can do the job are those with the appropriate knowledge, skill and willingness to do the job.

Validate provides CERTAINTY OF KNOWLEDGE. A manager can truly know and prove what each individual knows, and can also analyse common knowledge patterns. Armed with common knowledge patterns, an executive or manager can train on PRECISELY THOSE THINGS NEEDED.

The common method of gaining relative CERTAINTY is blanket training - cover all the bases - send ALL people to EVERY course. True?

Now, all a manager needs to do is ASSESS his staff on the mandatory knowledge requirement UP FRONT and then Validate provides the KNOWLEDGE SNAPSHOT needed to show what the ACTUAL training requirements are.
