Evidence-based design, analysis, and validation for high stakes decision-making

At Measurement Advisory, we support organisations in making confident, defensible decisions about people. Across education, hiring, and professional certification, we work on the design and evaluation of assessment systems used for selection, progression, and other high-stakes outcomes.

Designing Assessments for Consequential Decisions

We help ensure that assessments meaningfully capture human capability, whether skills, judgement, personality or behaviour, and that results are interpreted appropriately for their intended use. This includes designing and refining assessment content, analysing performance, and building robust evidence to support decisions over time.

Understanding How Assessments Perform

Our expertise spans psychometric analysis, standard setting, job and task analysis, curriculum and role alignment, and validation. We work closely with subject matter experts, educators, and HR leaders to ensure assessments reflect the real demands placed on candidates, from qualification frameworks to regulatory or employment contexts.

Aligning Assessment with Real-World Demands

Everything we do is grounded in responsible assessment practice. We prioritise transparency, fairness, and practical value, supporting innovation while ensuring that assessments remain rigorous, interpretable, and defensible.

Responsible and Defensible Assessment Practice

If you are reviewing, developing, or extending an assessment programme used to make consequential decisions about people, we would be glad to support you. Our aim is to help you assess capability in ways that are meaningful, fair, and fit for purpose.
