The Birkman Method®: Overview
The Birkman Method®’s instrument of assessment is through a questionnaire comprised of 298 questions that combines questions about an individual’s behavior and interests. It integrates questions about the concept of self and career interests and motivational factors that would otherwise be asked in several instruments.
The Birkman Method® was created using normal working populations of people in a business or industrial setting. The questionnaire itself underwent seven revisions throughout its creation process. Every revision was administered to more than 1,000 subjects from new population groups each time. Thus, the Birkman Method®’s test-retest reliabilities average .78, an indication of an internal consistency of scales.
The Birkman Method® has a database of over 2 million responses, which enables it to examine careers that are fit for a large number of occupations.
The Birkman Method® questionnaire and resulting reports are administered and accessed over the Internet through its very own online system, BirkmanDirect. This assures the respondents that all Birkman questionnaires and resulting reports are secured and treated as confidential.
