Step 1: FINDING OUT ABOUT YOURSELF
(We recommend that you select at least two of the following since no
one assessment provides sufficient information for something as
important as making a career choice.)
 IDEAS (Interest, Determination, Exploration and Assessment System)
128 question interest inventory. Receive an individualized
profile showing how your interest pattern fits into 16 different
occupational areas. Explore CIS occupations related to high interest
areas immediately.
No appointment necessary - takes about 30 minutes.
Free to all.
MICRO-SKILLS
After you select transferable skills that you enjoy using most, this
program will suggest and rate 30 occupations. You will also receive a
score for each of the 6 Holland Personality Types and see how that
relates to the work you enjoy. Then find out why a particular occupation fits or doesn't fit.
1 & ½ hour appointment

MOTIVATED SKILLS
Discover the difference between your functional-transferable skills
(things you are both good at and enjoy) and your burn-out skills (things
you can do, but do not enjoy). Rather than producing a list of
occupations, this can help you isolate the abilities that you want to
emphasize in your work.
