Qualifications needed to use psychometric tests

There are instruments on the market for which you need no specific qualification in order to purchase and use. In general, you should avoid such instruments as they are unlikely to have been developed with the rigour normally required of psychometric tests. In contrast, for most properly developed psychometric tests available in the UK, you will need to be qualified at either 'Level A' or 'Level B'.

Level A and Level B are the two principal stages of training in the certification system for psychometric test training set up by the British Psychological Society. These qualifications are available following attendance at courses offered by the major UK test publishers and by other training providers.
