Third Party Assessment

Third-Party Assessment is a process where the skills and knowledge of a trainee or working professional are evaluated by an independent agency, not by the trainer or the institute that provided the training. This system is used by GSDCI to maintain fairness, transparency, and quality in skill certification. It ensures that every candidate is assessed equally, based only on their actual performance and job readiness.

The third-party assessor is trained and certified to follow national and global standards while evaluating the candidate. These assessments are structured to test real-world skills through practical tests, role-plays, interviews (viva), and sometimes written exams. This gives a clear picture of the candidate’s abilities in real job situations, not just their theoretical knowledge.

One major benefit of third-party assessment is that it builds trust among employers. When a company hires someone with a GSDCI certificate, they can be confident that the person has passed a strict, unbiased test. This also protects the credibility of the training program and prevents any manipulation or favoritism that might occur if the training provider assessed their own students.

For the learners, this assessment system adds great value to their certificate. It gives them a nationally and globally recognized proof of skill, which helps in finding better jobs, gaining promotions, or even starting their own businesses. It also boosts self-confidence, as they know their skills have been tested and validated independently.

GSDCI regularly appoints and monitors third-party assessment bodies for different sectors like healthcare, IT, construction, hospitality, retail, agriculture, and more. To ensure quality, these assessment bodies are also audited and reviewed from time to time.

If you want to register for a third-party skill assessment, become an authorized assessor or assessment agency, or understand the assessment process and job role guidelines, you can visit the official GSDCI website or reach out to your nearest GSDCI-accredited training center.
