Facet5 Virtual Accreditation

Our new virtual accreditation programme delivers exactly the same rich and interactive learning experience as our face-to-face programme. The difference is you can now secure Facet5 Practitioner status from the comfort of your home or office.

About the virtual accreditation

Delivered by a Facet5 trainer, the accreditation is structured around modules and delivered over a number of online sessions that have been designed to stimulate curiosity and maximise learning.

We’ll take you on a journey of all things ‘Facet5’, taking a deep-dive into the;

  • origins of Facet5
  • theory of the Big5 & trait based personality
  • reliability and validity of the model, norm groups & response analysis
  • inter-play between the factors (and sub-factors)

Plus, we’ll also explore how Facet5 can be applied within your work to support selection, integration, personal, team and leadership development.

Over the course of the programme, expect to roll-up your sleeves and put the learning into action as you have a go at debriefing a Facet5 profile yourself.

“As psychologists we adhere strongly to scientific principles, but as practitioners we know that nothing works unless it is easy to understand and apply. Our mission has been to turn reliable data into information that is presented in the most practical and usable way possible”.

Norman Buckley & Rebekah Williams, Authors of Facet5

Who is the accreditation for?

Facet5 can be used by anyone who supports people development and by those curious to understand how to get the best out of people. No specific prior knowledge or experience is required, although healthy curiosity will help! Our Accredited Practitioners work across a varied range of industries and fields. These include In-house HR / L&D teams, Organisational development Recruitment & selection, Coaching & development consultants as well as Functional line managers. What unites them is a passion for understanding and developing others. Facet5 provides this insight and understanding to help realise individual, team and leader potential – across the whole employee journey. Those who have no Facet5 experience will be invited to complete the Facet5 questionnaire and receive a debrief, prior to joining the accreditation programme.

So why choose Facet5?

We believe understanding your personality – really, truly understanding it, provides an individual with a sense of their identity and the know-how to thrive in a changing world.

A Trait Based / Normative Tool
Personality traits are measured along a continuum rather than a forced dichotomy between one type or another. This is a more precise and meaningful approach and allows people to understand their personality in relation to others.

Big5 theory of personality
Based on data driven research, the Big5 theory of personality is recognised as the most reliable and valid way of measuring and describing personality.

Emotionality as a ‘lens’
Facet5 is the only model to apply Emotionality as an interpretive element. Emotionality impacts how the other factors show up and this can create real lightbulb moments in people’s self-awareness.

Natural language
Facet5 uses a natural everyday terms that is more familiar and strengths based. This creates a common language for understanding and talking about behaviours – rather than using overly academic or less balanced language.

“Facet5 gave me that ‘a-ha’ moment. I was instantly able to connect how I perceived myself and the way I like to work “ and how I work with others”.
