CARMEL, Ind. (March 6, 2006) - Performance Assessment Network, Inc. ® ("pan" ®), a world leader in online assessment and talent management systems, is pleased to announce a strategic marketing agreement with SHL, Ltd. that enables pan to distribute SHL instruments and reports to its already-established, growing network of customers in North and South America.
Among the SHL assessments that pan will now offer is the well-known Occupational Personality Questionnaire (OPQ).

Additional instruments that will be distributed include the NCT1 and NMT4, which assess an individual´s ability to interpret and think critically about numerical data.
"Adding the OPQ and other SHL assessment inventories to our catalogue is a great move for pan as well as our customers, providing them with access to these well-known personality and managerial selection instruments," commented David T. Pfenninger, Ph.D., chairman and CEO of pan.
