Focus of the Exercises

The in-basket exercises focus on real-life problems and issues that confront school administrators on a daily basis. As a result, it scores very high in student interest and satisfaction.

Additional Content

A brief history of assessment centers and a synopsis of recognized adult learning theories are also included.
