About The MBTI Program
MBTI stands for the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator assessment. It is a self-reporting questionnaire designed to make Jung’s theory of personality types understandable and useful in our everyday lives. Results of the MBTI are valuable and have many uses in our lives. The assessment can identify the differences between normal, healthy people. These differences can be a source of misunderstanding and miscommunication.
Taking the MBTI assessment and understanding the feedback and coaching will help you identify your unique gifts. The information will enhance your understanding of self; your motivations, your natural strengths, and your potential areas of growth. It will also help you appreciate people who are different from you. Understanding your Myers-Briggs type is self-affirming and encourages cooperation with others.
In 1943 Isabell Briggs Myers began developing the questions that became the assessment. After decades of research and development, the MBTI assessment is the world’s most widely and universally accepted tool for understanding normal, healthy personality types. Millions of MBTI assessments have been administered in 30 languages. The tool’s popularity and usefulness grows each year.
The MBTI assessment explains basic patterns of how people take in information and make decisions. It has been proven beneficial in a broad range of applications.
- Self-understanding and individual development

- Organizational development
- Diversity and multicultural training

Fostering Growth Through Development
At its heart, Vital Knowledge Group pushes you to be your best in every way possible. Before I came into contact with Vital Knowledge Group, I was unsure of my potential. I wasn’t sure if I would be able to make it through the training that I was pursuing with Vital Knowledge Group, and therefore was hesitant to work my hardest in my training. From day one, Vital Knowledge Group saw my potential. It encouraged me, supported me, and pushed me, all with a touch of humor. With its encouragement, I was able to far surpass my expectations, make it through my training, and obtain my official certification. More importantly, with Vital Knowledge Group’s support, I discovered more of who I am and what my passions are. I have been able to employ the skills I gained under the tutelage of Vital Knowledge Group in the real world. In the process, I have gained valuable experiences that I have been able to discuss in graduate school interviews. Without the guidance of Vital Knowledge Group, I would absolutely not be where I am today.
