THE RIGHT ANSWER
Ascent FD ACT was born out of necessity.

Delays in promotional processes can significantly impact department operations and budgets.
In response, we undertook a multi-year study to design and implement a system that delivers customized, high-quality assessment center solutions—promptly and at a reasonable cost. Our goal is to support departments by removing barriers to promotion and helping identify the right leaders at the right time.
