Assessments & Tools

Distinct participant-learning tools and Organizational Readiness Assessment tools used at different stages of the NRI process. Course knowledge checks support participant learning, while the Organizational Readiness Scorecard evaluates the organization after the required participant earns NRI Professional Certification.

Assessment

Organizational Readiness Assessment

After the required participant earns NRI Professional Certification, the organization completes its unlocked Organizational Readiness Scorecard. NRI then calculates the organization's NRI Readiness Score and provides a Readiness Report and Improvement Plan. The resulting Readiness Report identifies organizational strengths and gaps, and the Improvement Plan provides recommended capacity-building priorities.

Course Knowledge Checks
