What can assessments do?

Assessments are designed to help you identify your interests, skills, personality type, and values and how they can be best matched with your academic or career pursuits. Assessments do not provide a definitive answer to the question "What career should I choose?" Instead, they give you suggestions of a variety of careers that might be a good match for you. You will benefit the most from self-assessment if you see a Career Center counselor to assist you with interpreting the results.

Values

This is a simple values assessment that may help you learn more about your work values. Your results are not likely to provide a final academic or career choice, but may help you discover more about the values you think are important. This information could be shared with your academic advisor and/or career counselor to help brainstorm potential college majors and career options.
