Part V: creating the EQ-i 2.0 and EQ 360 2.0

North American Professional Norms

Who is a Professional?

The Professional Norm sample includes 1,400 individuals who are employed or self-employed and have at least some post-secondary education. In other words, these norms reflect the individuals you will most commonly encounter in consultancy in professional contexts. (See Data Collection for the Professional Norm Sample in the Standardization sections below for more information on the Professional Norm sample.)

The Professional Norm sets the bar higher for your client’s EQ-i 2.0 scores; this norm group is more educated and more representative of corporate and/or managerial employees than the General Population Norm.
