The Cabinet Office Occupational Psychology Service and its technology partner, Talogy, have been awarded a prestigious Association for Business Psychology (ABP) Award.
The Award, announced at an event in London on the 8th November, demonstrates excellence in business psychology through projects which have been successful in achieving outstanding results in the workplace.
The Cabinet Office and Talogy received recognition for their revolutionary work to digitise talent assessment for the Civil Service.
On the night, the partners celebrated the following accolades:
- Excellence in Digital Technology – Winner
- Excellence in Customised Assessment – Second Place
What are they for?
The Occupational Psychology Service partnered with Talogy to produce psychometric tests and assessments for Civil Service Job applicants. These tests have significantly improved the overall efficiency of Government Recruitment Services by enabling hiring staff to make better-informed decisions.
Our experts say:
Paul Weldon, Head of Occupational Psychology Services, Government Recruitment Service, from The Civil Service remarked: “We’re absolutely delighted to have won the Excellence in Digital Technology ABP Award. This award reflects our dedication to maintaining the highest standards of integrity, inclusivity, and efficiency in the Civil Service and reflects the hard work of all the colleagues involved from both within the Cabinet Office and our partners, Talogy.”
Ali Shalfrooshan, Head of International Assessment R&D from Talogy added: “Winning the 2023 ABP Award for Excellence in Digital Technology is a testament to our commitment to excellence, constantly improving, fairness, accessibility, and quality. We’re proud to have collaborated with The Civil Service and empowered them to create bespoke solutions that not only enhance the selection process but also enable organisations to make better, more inclusive, data-driven decisions about their most valuable asset – their people. I am also really proud of the collaboration between our technology, R&D, client experience, and consulting teams that made this win happen.”
