Assessments

 

Career assessment is a way to learn more about how a variety of careers might suit you. Assessments will focus of different areas such as skills, interests or values. Typically, an assessment asks you questions about what you like, don't like and what's important to you, and what your strengths are.

 

We recommend for students to complete at least one assessment and schedule to meet with a career counselor for interpretation of results, learn about options to make an informed career decision.
