The Highlands Company is the publisher of the Highlands Ability Battery, an online assessment tool measuring individual abilities. By means of objective hands-on work samples, we help individuals to understand their natural abilities and what they mean to their career planning and career development.
When you know the range of your abilities, you are better able to use them in your life and career and in your relations with others, including your fellow workers. Also, you are better able to integrate your abilities into the other factors that affect and influence your life and career. Highlands has identified Seven Critical Career Factors in addition to innate abilities. They are a person’s skills, interests, values, goals, personal style, family history, and position in the Career Development Cycle.
We help students to define their roles and to plan their ideal careers; adults to achieve greater career satisfaction; and businesses to understand and utilize the steps to Employee Development and to Team Development and Team Building. We do this through our Training and Development Programs for Highlands Certified Affiliates and our Train-the-Trainer Program for corporate facilitators. Our Affiliates – more than 165 spread throughout the world – are trained in the administration and interpretation of the Highlands Ability Battery.
