If you are a People & Culture, HR or L&D professional, you know how important it is to keep up with the latest tools and materials. Also building your professional expertise so you are an invaluable internal consultant is vital for your career. Becoming Certified in a variety of tools helps you build your expertise.

We understand how important it is to feel supported and be able to spend time with like-minded professionals. We offer regular catch ups for Certified professionals along with exclusive invitations to webinars, access to marketing materials, and whitepapers.
Are you missing out on building capability?
If you are an internal consultant within an organisation or an external consultant providing services to your clients, becoming certified in relevant tools can be beneficial to your business.
Relying on others to deliver services related to assessments can be unreliable and prevents you from fully leveraging what the tool has to offer.
For example, people who are certified in the EQ-i 2.0 are able to use it not only to measure emotional intelligence of individuals, but to review group profiles, and map the subscales against capability frameworks. This broadens the efficacy of the tool and the integration of emotional intelligence into your organisation.
We can work with you to figure out exactly how to fully leverage all of the tools we have available for certification.
The whole program end to end was great, Ros was very experienced and knowledgeable and leveraged this during the course. Ros followed up with role specific considerations when using the EQ360 tool which was very well received.
Dale Osborne, People Safety Culture and Communications - Department of Justice and Community Safety Victoria
Ros was perfect- "the guru". The materials are terrific, and the tool is excellent. 10/10.
Simon Wood, Managing Director - Seedling Leadership
The EQ-i 2.0/EQ 360 certification program was a great introduction to this valuable leadership development tool and the virtual environment was an easy way to attend the training. The group was professional and intimate and the program was expertly facilitated by Ros. I'm now competent, confident and certified to apply these tools with Coaching clients. I see them reap the rewards by becoming more emotionally intelligent. It can stabilise their team and increase performance and productivity across the board.

Think back to the last significant decision you made at work. Maybe it was who to hire, how to respond to a difficult situation, or whether to back a new initiative. Now ask yourself honestly: did you start with the data, or did you already sense which way you were leaning?
If you're like most people, the feeling came first and the reasoning came second. That's not a weakness. According to neuroscience, that's exactly how the human brain is designed to work.
Self-Awareness includes recognising and understanding one's own emotions. This includes the ability to differentiate between subtleties in one's own emotions while understanding the cause of these emotions and the impact they have on one's own thoughts and actions and those of others (MHS, EQ-i 2.0).
It is certainly considerably more comprehensive than its name suggests. Moving through actually realising you are feeling something (we are never not feeling an emotion), to labelling it, to understanding how it is impacting on your behaviour, and then managing your emotional state if required! Understanding how you ‘show up’ to others is so important, as well as understanding how your emotional state may be impacting on you over time. We all run patterns – some not as helpful as others.
Gallup’s State of the World’s Emotional Health 2025 report describes emotions as “vital signs” — real-time indicators of the world’s wellbeing and stability.
When anger, sadness, or worry rise, they signal that societies — and the people within them — are under strain.
If we think about leadership through that same lens, the message is clear: emotions are the vital signs of workplace culture.
And yet, many leaders still can’t read them.
At a time when culture is everything, the cost of a poor leadership hire goes far beyond missed KPIs - it can quietly unravel trust, morale, and the sense of safety teams need to do their best work. As HR professionals and people-focused consultants, you know that leadership isn’t just about delivering results. It’s about how those results are achieved. That’s why spotting potential leadership derailers before someone is in the role is critical - not just to protect your culture, but to preserve the wellbeing of your people.
As emotional intelligence (EI) continues to gain recognition as a critical success factor in leadership, recruitment, and team effectiveness, so too has interest in reliable ways to measure it. Two of the most well-known tools for assessing emotional intelligence are the EQ-i 2.0 (Emotional Quotient Inventory 2.0) and the MSCEIT (Mayer-Salovey-Caruso Emotional Intelligence Test).
