Career assessment tests are tools that help us learn about ourselves, and help to clarify and explore career options. There is no pass/fail element to these assessments. Counseling and Career Services offers several assessments:

Strong Interest Inventory (*fee-see below) - This assessment measures interests, not abilities, and will compare your likes and dislikes to people who are satisfied in specific careers. Provides insight about interests, career motivators, skills confidence, and personal style as well as provides career options.

WOWI (World of Work Inventory) (*fee-see below) - A comprehensive career/vocational assessment instrument constructed to help a person learn about him/herself in relation to the wide variety of occupations available.
