Behaviour Profiling Short Course
Self Paced 20-hour course to help you understand more about behavioural profiling
Learn more about the use of psychological and behavioural profiling in a wide range of settings, such as recruitment, education, criminology and marketing. A profile helps us to find out more about a person, what they are really like, their characteristics and personality. We often assume that behavioural profiling is used mainly in the field of criminal behaviour, but psychological profiling can also be used in a wide range of other areas, such as –
- Is this person the right candidate for the job?
- What careers would suit this person?
- Does this child or adult have a specific educational need?
- What customers will buy this product?
- How will a customer buy this product?
- Does this person have a personality disorder, such as Antisocial Personality Disorder?
- Does this person have the right aptitude and skills for this job?
- Does this person have a clinical condition?
- Does this person have the skills and personality required for a promotion?
- Psychological profiling can help us to learn more about people and find out whether they are the right candidate for the job, whether they have educational needs, whether they show criminal tendencies and how we can market our goods and services to a particular group of people.
