Take the Assessment
As the original DiSC provider with over 40 years of expertise, Everything DiSC offers a proven, scientifically validated assessment with a 90%+ accuracy rating from learners worldwide. Learners respond to behavioral statements on a five-point scale to measure their preferences and tendencies based on the DiSC model—a simple, yet powerful model that describes four basic behavioral styles: D (Dominance), i (influence), S (Steadiness), and C (Conscientiousness).
Discover their DiSC Style
Catalyst delivers each learners’ assessment results using a personalized, narrative-style behavioral profile. The personalized profile content:
- Deepens self-understanding through the lens of each learner’s unique DiSC style
- Gives learners insight into their own preferences and tendencies
- Lays the groundwork for a transformational learning experience full of “aha!” moments

Catalyst FAQ & Resources
Everything DiSC Workplace® on Catalyst™ and Everything DiSC® Agile EQ™ on Catalyst™ refactor the traditional Workplace and Agile EQ™ experiences to better support real-world application of the learning concepts. The result is an experience that transforms the traditional once-and-done training event into an ongoing learning process. Three notable differences are described below:
Modular Design: The traditional Workplace and Agile EQ content have been refactored into eight learning modules. Unlike the traditional experiences, each module is self-contained and can be done alone or in conjunction with others. The design enables group training sessions that can be easily customized to meet a wider range of time or group-size constraints.
The Workplace learning modules include the following:
- Fundamentals Module 1 (60 minutes classroom/65 minutes virtual): Your DiSC® Style
- Fundamentals Module 2 (30 minutes classroom/20 minutes virtual): Your Colleagues
- Workplace Module 1 (75 minutes classroom/70 minutes virtual): What Drives You
- Workplace Module 2 (75 minutes classroom/60 minutes virtual): You and Other Styles
- Workplace Module 3 (60 minutes classroom/55 minutes virtual): Build Better Relationships
The Agile EQ experience has been refactored into three learning modules.
- Agile EQ Module 1 (45 minutes classroom/40 minutes virtual): Your EQ Strengths
- Agile EQ™ Module 2 (95 minutes classroom/100 minutes virtual): Beyond Your Comfort Zone
- Agile EQ Module 3 (60 minutes classroom/60 minutes virtual): Develop Your EQ
Please note that all learning modules can be delivered separately or together in a single event. The intent of the modular design is to equip Partners and Facilitators with more options to address emerging learning trends around shorter-format sessions.
Immediately Relevant and Applicable to Each Learner’s Day-to-Day Work Life: The Catalyst™ platform acts as a personalized, on-demand single access point for learners to call on throughout their DiSC journey. Here, learners take their DiSC assessment, gain access to their personalized results and their Workplace and/or Agile EQ™ application content, and can compare their DiSC® style to their colleagues and get tips for more effective interactions in real time. This contextualized experience allows learners to apply what they learn with their colleagues and more easily come back to DiSC to help achieve lasting behavior change.
Virtual or In-Person Instructor-Led Facilitation: To address the remote work implications brought on by COVID-19, the Everything DiSC Workplace® on Catalyst™ and Everything DiSC® Agile EQ™ on Catalyst™ facilitation has been designed to support virtual OR in-person training and include the following:
- Virtual facilitation (for use with videoconferencing technology)
- Classroom facilitation (for face-to-face sessions)

The future vision of Everything DiSC on Catalyst includes translations; however, we are focused on creating and optimizing the experience in English first, so we can’t provide any timelines.
People will appear in the style filter for only the first letter or the first quadrant of their style. This is true for both the Your Colleagues page and the You and Other Styles page. For example, a learner with an Si style, will appear in the S-style filter but will not appear in the i style filter.
