Mitigating people risk. Maximising people potential.
For over 20 years, Cognisco has provided organisations that operate in complex and often highly regulated markets unmatched levels of insight about the capability of their workforce. Our Capability Management platform, MyKnow 365, gives a vital and unique insight into your workforce and means you can identify and address knowledge and understanding gaps, mitigate and pre-empt risk and enable people to achieve their full potential.
We provide the tools that companies need to measure, manage, monitor and evidence the capability of their people.
