What is the HR Business Partner Development Assessment?

The i4cp HR Business Partner Development Assessment is an online multi-rater feedback experience tailored specifically for people in the HRBP role. The assessment is based on an HRBP capability model developed by i4cp, the Institute for Corporate Productivity, a leading human resources research organization focused on discovering the practices of high-performing organizations.


Because the HR Business Partner is a relationship-intensive role, the HRBP development assessment is designed to collect developmental input from the business leaders and HR colleagues that an HR Business Partner works with on a regular basis, including manager input and self-evaluation.


Used by hundreds of HRBPs across organizations from all industries, i4cp’s HRBP Development Assessment helps upskills HR Business Partners through individual and group reporting.
