The risk your training records can’t see

Cognisco measures knowledge, judgement and confidence, exposing risks that traditional assessment can miss.

For organisations where workforce mistakes create safety, regulatory, operational or financial risk, Cognisco gives you a clearer picture of real workforce capability.

Identify hidden workforce risk

Catch flawed judgement and misplaced confidence before they lead to real-world incidents.

Target interventions

Direct training precisely where capability gaps exist, eliminating guesswork and wasted budget.

Evidence competence against safety critical and regulated operations

Prove true frontline capability and compliance with clear, audit-ready data.

More than 30% may be getting it wrong and not know it

Our benchmarks* show that, on average, more than 30% of people can be misinformed, misunderstand or misinterpret information, guidelines or codes of conduct, while being 100% confident they are acting correctly.

*Based on analysis of over 25 years of customer data
