Abstract
The article presents an analysis of the employment effectiveness of the Pomeranian Competences Center (Pomorski Ośrodek Kompetencji ‒ POK) in comparison with other Active Labor Market Programs (ALMP) used in Poland. The Pomeranian Competences Center POK operates within the framework of the Voivodeship Labour Office in Gdansk as an innovative test center. The Competences Center diagnoses people with work samples in terms of psychological competences, as well as in functional capacities.
