One critical element that has been missing from our programs and partnership portfolio is psychometric assessment tools, and we are delighted that EdulinX can finally bring Thomas International\u2019s extensive range of assessment solutions to Japan. The amazing customer stories of major global companies and institutions, including some high-profile Japanese multinationals, convinced us to bring Thomas to Japan. It took a lot of effort, but we are finally able to officially introduce these fine and well-proven assessment tools to our Japan-based clients as well as training providers and facilitators alike.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Thomas International is excited about the new strategic partnership with EdulinX Corporation. At Thomas, we believe in unlocking the potential of every individual, team, and organisation by making the complex nature of human behavior, aptitude, and personality easier for everyone to understand. Our talent assessment platform helps organisations around the world transform their performance through smarter people decisions, looking beyond just skills and experience to unleash the power of their people. With EdulinX, we found the right partner to expand the use of our portfolio in Japan. Together with EdulinX we will accelerate the localisation of all our assessments for Japanese language and business culture.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
