The Psytech GeneSys 360, available through the Psytech GeneSys Online system, makes it easy and convenient to administer your 360 degree appraisal project. The Psytech GeneSys 360 system is completely customisable to your own competencies, or you can use Psytech International‘s competency model and select the behavioural rating items you would like to use. Each project requires responses from the person being rated, and at least one other rater. The system allows you to invite participants via email to complete the online appraisal. Once the appraisals have been completed, the system collates the data and generates a detailed report where responses from all raters are summarised and can be compared. These reports can be made anonymous so that raters cannot be identified. The Psytech GeneSys 360 is a cost-effective way of implementing an in-house 360 appraisal, costing only a single credit is used PER rater.

The Psytech GeneSys360 is particularly suited to in-house validation studies. The ratings obtained by the system can be used as a criterion in concurrent or predictive validation studies, and also for determining predictive bias. This is particularly important with regard to the requirements of the Employment Equity Act regarding test use. If Psytech tests are used in such a validation or bias study, we are prepared to set up and run the 360 degree project for you at no cost to the test user, and also to do the resultant statistical analysis.

We welcome the opportunity to assist companies in setting up their own 360 degree projects – whether using our own competencies, or customising the system to the client’s current competencies. Contact us for more information, or if you would like a demonstration of what the system offers!
