How does it work?

- The proprietary software gathers the information and processes it.
- Then, a custom-tailored Astride Insights Report is produced.
The tool evaluates competencies and compares them with equivalent job roles. By focusing on 42 primary competencies, and 30 job roles, the tool is a tremendous asset for companies to identify organization-wide skills performance.
Wouter Knigge, EXIN & SIG CTO is pleased to see the traction Astride has gained, remarking:
