   Please note: AGCAS can only run this course with the maximum 12 participants. If there are less than 12 participants the course will have to be cancelled. Therefore, if you would like to attend this course please book early to help ensure that it runs.

   This five-day residential course offers a cost effective way to become a qualified practitioner in psychometric testing at both levels A and B.

   Duration
   The course runs 9.00 Monday to 17.00 Friday. Five nights accommodation and all catering is included, with accommodation starting on Sunday for the early course start on Monday.

   Pricing
   The initial cost for each AGCAS Associate Member will be £2660. However, Kenexa will "refund" direct to services the sum of £1250 in Kenexa psychometric tests credits when the participant attends the course. So, the real cost of combined Level A and Level B training will be £1410 (i.e. less than it cost for Level A alone in 2008).

   Please note that Kenexa cannot guarantee to continue the psychometric training credits agreement in future years so, if this offer is attractive to you, please take advantage of it now, whilst it is available.
