| The "idea"
of PsyAsia International was conceived
by our principal director during his
time working in Dubai, United Arab
Emirates. In his three and a half
years there, he was teaching MBA Human
Resource Management for the UK's University
of Leicester and also set up and managed
a psychometric assessment consultancy.
His work spanned the UAE, Oman, Saudi
Arabia, Bahrain, Jordan, Lebanon and
Kuwait. At the end of this 3.5 year
period, the consultancy was handed
over to an interest party and still
run by them today. PsyAsia then came
into being with an initially limited
presence in Singapore and Hong Kong.
Over the years, this presence has
grown remarkably and PsyAsia has spurned
into 2 separate business entities
in these two territories. PsyAsia
International is the official name
of the Hong Kong business and in Singapore
we are PsyAsia International Pte.
Ltd. Following tremendous website
hits and enquiries from prospective
clients in Australia, the Middle East,
Malaysia, Pakistan and the United
Kingdom, PsyAsia added representative
offices in more locations both in
Australasia and Europe. |

| PsyAsia International
works all over Asia as well as in
Australia, the Middle East and Europe
(including the UK). We are a team
of professional associates (mostly
organisational psychologists, but
also human resource consultants, test
administrators, trainers and counselors)
dedicated to organisational and human
resource development, training and
consultancy based on underlying psychological
principles. It is our focus on scientific,
evidence-based psychology at the core
of our Human Resource and Training
activities that separates us from
those providing similar services in
the HR field. |

| PsyAsia International is a vibrant and innovative business. We pride ourselves on the science underneath all of our solutions and excellence in client service both in terms of delivering solutions and query response/resolution times. A vast amount of the work we do is repeat business. Another large chunk of our work comes from major corporate clients who have left our competitors following poor service delivery and other issues. |

PsyAsia International
has clients throughout the world.
Clients from anywhere in the world
are welcome on our public courses.
Additionally, most of our in-house
courses can be delivered anywhere
in the world, although our major focus
and area of greatest experience and
expertise is Asia (especially
Hong Kong, Singapore, Thailand and
Malaysia), the Middle East, Australia
and the UK. Even so, our
ethical approach, professionalism
and passion for excellence have seen
us running courses and carrying out
consultancy for clients outside of
these areas in, for example, Africa
or the USA.

As a practitioner, he applies his

Our second director is a qualified counselor with a Masters degree from Hong Kong University and experience in counselling within the Hong Kong government sector. Speaking English, Cantonese and Mandarin means that she is accessible to a wide range of people in our focus region. With experience of research, teaching and supervising counselling and social work subjects and students respectively, a wide knowledge of the current counselling literature and extensive experience in career and personal counselling with Hong Kong locals, she is well placed to assist in PsyAsia's workplace counselling programs as well as with our online individual career analysis and counselling clients at testingyou.com.
