Mayer-Salovey-Caruso Emotional Intelligence Test (MSCEIT) Advanced and Certification Programs

Become certified in the MSCEIT or advance your skills in working with the MSCEIT, by joining Dr. Susan David (Evidence Based Psychology) for these dynamic and highly-rated emotional intelligence programs.

The MSCEIT was developed by the originators of the psychological theory of emotional intelligence, Professors Salovey (Yale University) and Mayer (University of New Hampshire), with their colleague Dr. Caruso. This theoretically sound and rigorously tested instrument is the only published performance measure of emotional intelligence abilities. As a performance test it assesses actual, hard emotional intelligence skills rather than perceived or desired skills.
