Part II: Administering a Self-Report EQ-i 2.0

EQ-i 2.0 Setup and Scoring

Generating Reports

Reports are generated using a token system. You purchase tokens from MHS which are then redeemed for any report you choose. You can purchase tokens ahead of time, or pay for transactions as you go using a credit card.

To score and generate a report, log in to your EQ-i 2.0 Portal account, select the EQ-i 2.0 from the Assessment page, and click Report. There, you will have the option of selecting a report type.

If you are scoring only one report at a time, you can generate the report from the respondent’s EQ-i 2.0 record on the Manage screen.

The Workplace Report

The Workplace Report is designed for use in a wide variety of coaching and development situations and work settings. It focuses on the impact of emotional intelligence at work and offers suggestions for working with colleagues, supervisors, and clients. In recruiting, this report is useful when using scores to guide the selection of follow-up interview questions, and in identifying potential training and development needs.

When you generate a Workplace Report, you will receive two PDFs (Client and Coach sections; see Table 5.1). The administrator retains the Coach section for interpretation.
