Assignment
Please take time to thoughtfully and thoroughly complete the assessment; allow a minimum of sixty minutes for completion.
- Print a copy of these proficiency levels for reference as you complete the assessment.
- Read the background, directions, and competency scale PRIOR to taking the survey.
- The key competencies or specific competency behaviors are identified and grouped by competency domain category. For each behavior, please select the scoring that is most reflective of your current cumulative skill or ability level.
- All competency behaviors should be evaluated as personal “I” statements as they relate to your current position. If a student is not currently working in healthcare, they will respond with the most current experience.
- Consider each area and provide an accurate assessment of your currentcompetence in these areas. This will provide a greater reliability for comparison in later self-assessments. You may have experience in an area and still be at a level 2 or 3. This is not only acceptable; it is expected.
NOTE: The program holds a goal of having each student score a 5/6 in most areas by the time they graduate. We expect many students will exceed this goal. It is rare for seasoned leaders to score “7/8, or 9/10” on most items. - If the specific competency or behavioral objective is not applicable to your current or past work experience, please select the ‘Not Applicable’ option. If you check N/A but have a strong desire to learn this competency or behavioral objective, please note this competency or behavioral objective when you complete the Career Development Profile.
- Take the self-assessment survey (Links to an external site.) by the due date on the course calendar
- Once you click submit, you will see a submission screen for a brief time; it will then re-direct you to the Penn State HPA website. You will not get a report, you will not print anything out, we will get your information automatically.
- The assessment will not automatically notify Canvas that you have finished. Your faculty member will retrieve your survey from the server, review your responses, and enter your completion due date in the Canvas module. Until then, it will stay on your “to do” list. It may take your faculty member for this course a full week to review and mark the assignment as completed.
