Description
Become certified to use Hogan assessments
The Hogan Assessments Certification qualifies professionals to administer, interpret, and apply Hogan’s core personality-based assessments in a responsible and practical way.
With Pixonality, certification goes beyond the workshop. You benefit from expert facilitation, hands-on practice, personalized support, and access to a community of certified professionals across Canada.
Why complete your Hogan certification with Pixonality?
Pixonality has been an authorized Hogan distributor for more than 20 years. Our certification workshops are led by experienced Hogan-certified facilitators who combine extensive assessment expertise with practical knowledge of leadership, talent development, and organizational decision-making.
Choosing Pixonality means learning with specialists who understand both the science behind Hogan and the real-world questions professionals face when using assessment results with clients, leaders, teams, and organizations.
You will also receive exclusive learning benefits, including post-certification support, continued access to resources, and opportunities to stay connected with other certified professionals.
Topics covered during the workshop include:
- Reviewing Hogan’s unique assessment philosophy and why it matters for proper assessment use;
- Discussing the variety of potential assessment applications appropriate for each of the assessment instruments;
- Reviewing a general model for providing Hogan assessment-based feedback.
This workshop teaches the interpretation and application of Hogan’s three core personality-based assessments:
- The Hogan Personality Inventory (HPI) is the industry standard for measures of normal personality. It identifies the "bright side" of personality – what we see when people are at their best. By assessing personality, you gain valuable insight into how people work, how they lead, and how successful they will be in your organization.
-
The Hogan Development Survey (HDS) assesses behaviour that hinders work relationships, productivity, or overall career potential. The HDS identifies the "dark side" of personality – what we see when people are stressed. By assessing dark-side personality, you can recognize and mitigate performance risks before they become a problem.
-
The Motives, Values, Preferences Inventory (MVPI) identifies synergy and conflict among team members and fit between an individual and an organization. It reveals the "inside" of personality: a person's core values, goals, and interests. By assessing values, you can understand what motivates candidates to succeed, and in what type of position, job, and environment they will be the most productive.

“Overall really well done. The material was great and the structure made it possible to absorb a lot of content in a short period of time. I feel ready to deliver a robust assessment after only a couple of days, so nice job! Eileen has an engaging style that keeps participants engaged and involved in the workshop. She did a good job not getting too bogged down in deeper-dive topics that might have taken us off focus.”
