Ian this is great thanks for sharing.
There is a small problem with the localisation: after asking me to share location it switched to Dutch and I cannot revert. Too much personalisation I guess!

Hello Ian,
What a great tool. I've take the test and I can tell that it's very well done. Fun to take and real meaning behind the questions.
Do you have plans to use it as training needs detection & analysis tools so as to suggest ways to bridge each person's possible skill gaps?
Very interesting!
