- Free combination of digital elements – asynchronous and/or live
- Valid and reliable diagnostics combined with an external expert perspective
- Central participant portal for all elements
- Consolidated results in one comprehensive report
- Personal reflection session with concrete next development steps

A digital journey tailored to your specific needs
The ITB Talent Journey is a modular approach to digital aptitude assessment and potential analysis. Together with you, we assemble the right building blocks — depending on the target group, competency model, language, desired depth, and organizational framework.
All steps are consolidated via a central participant portal and clearly presented to participants. The result is an assessment that is professionally sound, organizationally manageable, and easy for participants to follow.
Flexible participation — without having to take extended leave
Participants can work on many elements at times and in locations of their choosing. This makes it easier to integrate the self-assessment into their day-to-day work — even with busy schedules, international target groups or decentralized teams.
Reliable diagnostics rather than gut feeling
The Talent Journey combines scientifically grounded, valid, and reliable test procedures with competency-based interviews and an external observer perspective from experienced ITB diagnosticians.
One central portal for all elements
Tests, appointments, information, and next steps are brought together in an intuitive digital interface. This provides orientation, a consistent process, and positive candidate experience.
All results in one report
Various data sources are consolidated into a structured results report. This provides companies and participants with a coherent picture of strengths, areas for learning and potential for development.
Transfer through a personal reflection session
The process culminates not just in a report, but in a personalized reflective discussion. Together, we analyse the results and identify specific next steps for development.
Efficient, scalable, and resource-friendly
Less travel, reduced demand on internal resources and flexible delivery make the Talent Journey particularly well-suited to larger groups, international audiences and PE budgets under pressure.
From briefing to the final result: this is how a project unfolds
Briefing and concept design
Together we clarify the target group, the underlying question, the competency model, language to be used, and the organizational framework. On this basis, we assemble the appropriate components for the assessment — from test procedures and interviews to the reflection session.
Setting up the digital journey
We set up the participant portal to meet your specific requirements — including participant communication, design, data protection notices, invitation logic, reminder processes and organisational workflows.
The result is a journey that is professionally sound whilst also being tailored to your organisation.
Implementation
Participants complete their assessment flexibly and digitally. Depending on the configuration, they undertake assessment tasks, take part in live sessions or receive further tasks and information via the central portal.
ITB supports the delivery of the program and ensures that everything runs smoothly.
Reporting and reflection session
The results are compiled into a structured report. During the personal reflection session, strengths, learning areas, and development potential are put into context — with a focus on concrete next steps.
Evaluation and continuous improvement
For ongoing programs, we regularly evaluate the approach together with you and adapt the Talent Journey to target groups, processes, or new requirements as needed.

FAQ
Which target groups is the ITB Talent Journey suitable for?
The Talent Journey is particularly suitable for employees, high-potential individuals and managers who need a thorough assessment of their current situation. Typical areas of application include potential analysis, talent programmes, leadership development and internal recruitment. It can also be used in selection contexts, depending on the specific requirements.
Is the Talent Journey a replacement for an assessment center or development center?
Not in every case. Traditional assessment and development centers offer a particular depth of insight through simulations and multiple observation perspectives. The Talent Journey is a particularly strong alternative or complement when a flexible, digital and standardized assessment is required with minimal organizational effort.
What sets the Talent Journey apart from pure test diagnostics?
The Talent Journey combines valid and reliable assessment methods with other elements such as competency-based interviews, input from external experts, a consolidated report of findings and a personal reflection session. This ensures that assessment results are not viewed in isolation, but are contextualized and translated into concrete next steps.
How flexibly can participants complete the Journey?
Many elements can be completed flexibly in terms of time and location. Live digital elements, such as interviews or reflection sessions, are scheduled on an individual basis. This makes it easy to integrate the progress assessment into the daily work routine.
Can different target groups be reflected differently?
Yes. The assessment methods and modules used are tailored to the target group, specific questions at hand, and the competency model. For example, this allows us to assess executives, high-potential employees, or individuals on other career paths using test batteries tailored to each group.
Is there a combined results report?
Yes. The results of the various diagnostic tests are compiled into a structured report. This provides a coherent overall picture rather than a collection of isolated, unrelated results.
What happens after the results report?
The program concludes with an individual reflection session. During this session, the results are analyzed, strengths and areas for growth are discussed, and specific next steps for development are identified. This supports the application of what has been learned in everyday work.
Is the Talent Journey also suitable for international target audiences?
Yes. The Talent Journey can be implemented in both German and English and is therefore also suitable for international audiences or employees at various locations.
Can the portal appear in our company's corporate design?
Yes. The digital interface can be customized to match your organization’s look and feel upon request. This creates a seamless and professional candidate experience.
How is data protection taken into account?
Data protection requirements are already taken into account during setup. These include, among other things, tailored data protection texts, transparent communication with participants, and a European server location.
How long will the implementation take?
The duration depends on the target audience, scope, desired level of customization, and number of participants. During a consultation, we’ll work together to determine which journey makes sense and what timeline is realistic.
How does the collaboration with ITB work?
We start by clarifying the scope of the project and developing a concept. Next, we set up the participant portal, coordinate communication and workflows, and provide support throughout the implementation. The results are compiled into a report and discussed in a one-on-one meeting. For ongoing projects, we regularly evaluate the process together with you.
