CCL Passport was exactly what we needed … it’s very much like ‘the easy button’ for leadership development content. The only hurdle was deciding which content to launch and when, and that’s where our partnership with CCL has been instrumental.

For our core leader training program, we combined key organizational knowledge and skill needed with the powerhouse of the CCL name and years of extensive research in the leadership field to offer a distinguished, holistic program to our leaders — one we believe is definitely ‘Best in Class.’

With such a diverse group from multiple time zones and different countries, we wanted to steer away from a ‘one size fits all’ approach to leadership development. The virtual experience was the best solution for our needs.

Read Case Study

I use a variety of assessment instruments in my practice but had not found a 360 I was happy with. Since CCL is obviously known industry-wide as the leader in 360s, I was definitely interested in getting a broader perspective of what was available to increase my toolset skills with clients. The CCL philosophy is really lovely and in the right spirit — using the instruments with absolute confidentiality and to support high-performance efforts … I literally put my experience into action the day after the workshop.

There is perhaps no better assessment certification provider than CCL for use with such a wide range of assessments that are seamlessly integrated into an online learning tool like Compass. If you are looking to get certified in industry-leading 360 assessments, this is the place to do it.
