    Helping you move forward with clarity by discovering your natural abilities

    Highlands
    Natural Abilities Assessment

    Everyone has natural abilities
    which are different from skills and personality traits.

    If you are not using your natural abilities, you can feel dissatisfaction, uncertainty, and stress.

    When you are using your natural abilities, you can experience effectiveness, efficiency, and personal satisfaction.

    leading Gold standard     among student assessment Tools 

    Highlands utilizes the Highlands Ability Battery (HAB), a series of online work samples, as a resource to provide insight into your natural, innate abilities. Highlands testing is a battery of 19 objective timed work samples that you complete online. When you finish all the work samples, you will receive a customized report that reflects your abilities.

    The HAB is unique in that it measures your abilities based on performance rather than perception. Exercises such as recreating designs from memory, manipulating blocks in space, and putting images in logical sequence are some of the virtual tasks you are asked to perform within a set amount of time. Results based on timed performance are far more reliable than results based on self-perception or personal opinion.
