Those competence levels are:
- Level 1 – Core operational practices necessary to perform effectively

Any of the OpX360® assessments can be taken individually or together, depending on the needs of your organization. In 60 minutes or less, you can know your operational competence levels in any of the areas and what you need to do next.
“OpX360® was an extremely helpful tool, because it gave me a reality check on the areas our organization need to improve on. It was also encouraging to see how many areas we are already following best practices. As a leader, sometimes you just need a really smart tool like this to get a pulse on if your priorities are on track. I'd highly recommend it to any nonprofit director or manager."
