Think about the time you took the written test for your driver’s license: You were probably nervous, with the sweaty palms and weak knees to prove it. You might have felt unprepared because no matter how much you studied, you were left completely at the mercy of a pass or fail grade at the end for whether or not you got your certification.
No one likes taking tests, so why do so many organizations look at certification in the exact same way? They drag learners through the content before being they are tested and assessed. There’s no feedback; no support. You pass or fail and it’s an inherently negative experience. In today’s competitive talent landscape, certification is more important than ever to help learners differentiate themselves. Does that mean everyone is doomed to a driver’s exam experience every time they want to stand out?
