WHAT IS THE IDI?

 

The IDI is a highly researched, well respected, and widely used online self-evaluation tool. It effectively helps individuals, groups, and organizations understand their intercultural capabilities. It helps people understand how they process cross-cultural interactions and allows them to gain a realistic and accurate picture of where they are on a “continuum of development” in their intercultural abilities. Because one’s intercultural competence can change and grow with intentionality, training and interaction. the IDI also provides an individualized Intercultural Development Plan.
