The Art and Science Behind NPEdge Fundraiser Assessments

NPEdge profiles for Fundraiser Generalists and Major Gifts Specialists identify the talents and experiences that can lead to success in the nonprofit sector. The assessments were created under special arrangement with Hogan Assessment Systems and are based on the Hogan Personality Inventory. More than a dozen nonprofit organizations participated in the job analysis that helped us narrow the relevant success factors. This groundbreaking research resulted in easy-to-use, secure online tools that are useful to those who are doing the hiring as well as those who are looking for a position.

Moreover, the Hogan Personality Inventory has 30 years of experience behind it. Hogan assessments are rigorously validated and continuously updated. They have been used in validation studies of more than 100 job titles and are proven to have no adverse impact on selection. Hogan Assessment Systems pioneered the use of personality measures for making organizational decisions.

NPEdge reports were designed by David Edell and Paul Connolly, who have more than 40 years of relevant combined experience.
