Measures of Learning Agility

Abstract

This chapter critically evaluates existing, publicly available, learning agility assessments so that interested readers can more readily select the tool or tools most relevant to their needs. It begins by examining different methods for assessing learning agility and their relative strengths and weaknesses, specifically self-report measures, multirater surveys, interviews, and simulations. Next, it reviews specific measures of learning agility and the properties of those tools. Details are provided regarding the dimensions measured by each, their respective frameworks and development histories, psychometric characteristics, report and norm availability, and certification requirements. It concludes with a discussion of the limitations of existing measures and some recommendations for future research.
