Measure Real AI Proficiency

No. The assessment is completely tool-agnostic. It measures transferable AI proficiency skills — how to think about AI tasks, evaluate AI outputs, and integrate AI into work — that apply regardless of which specific tool a candidate uses. AI tools change rapidly; the underlying skills we measure are durable.

No. The assessment is designed for any role where AI proficiency matters — marketing, finance, operations, customer success, HR, and more. You select the appropriate proficiency level for the role, and the scenarios adjust accordingly.

We assess AI Task Strategy (planning and delegation), Prompting & Interaction Quality (effective AI communication), Critical Evaluation & Validation (quality control of AI outputs), Ethical & Responsible Use (risk and compliance awareness), and Workflow Integration & Output Quality (turning AI assistance into professional deliverables).

Approximately 15 minutes. It's designed to be thorough but respectful of candidate time — much shorter than most technical assessments.

No. Candidates receive scores across each dimension on a 0–100 scale, providing a proficiency profile rather than a binary outcome. This helps you understand where someone excels and where they might need development.

The framework synthesises six peer-reviewed research sources spanning international government AI competency frameworks, academic literacy models, and policy-grade workforce research. Each dimension is grounded in established competency models and validated through psychometric methods.

Yes. AI proficiency is a skill set that applies regardless of whether someone is being evaluated for a new role or already employed. The same five dimensions (task strategy, prompting quality, critical evaluation, ethical use, and workflow integration) apply to any knowledge worker. Organisations assess current employees to identify AI upskilling gaps, inform L&D investments, support internal mobility, and meet requirements like EU AI Act Article 4.

Article 4 of the EU AI Act requires organisations deploying AI to ensure adequate AI literacy among relevant staff. This assessment provides a validated, documented way to measure and demonstrate that literacy — supporting compliance efforts.

Because we measure underlying proficiency skills (critical evaluation, ethical reasoning, task strategy) rather than knowledge of specific tools or interfaces, the assessment remains relevant as tools change. We continuously update scenarios to reflect current workplace practices while keeping the core framework stable.

Each of the five dimensions is scored independently on a 0–100 scale. Scores are level-specific — a score of 85 at Level 2 means excellent performance on Level 2 tasks. This gives you actionable insight into where a candidate stands relative to what the role requires.
