Career Assessments


The Career Center provides students with access to the latest versions and most often used assessments in Career Decision Making.

Presently we offer the Strong Interest Inventory and Myers-Briggs Personality on-line for a small fee to current students.

STRONG INTEREST INVENTORY

Taking the Strong Interest Inventory can be helpful in your academic decision-making and career planning. This assessment measures your level of interest in school subjects, occupational areas, work and leisure activities, kinds of people, and various learning and work environments, than compares your interests with people who are happily employed in a variety of occupations.  An additional feature is the “Making College Fit Your Interests” report.  This report identifies college courses, majors and activities that you may wish to explore. 

The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® (MBTI®) assessment is the most widely used personality assessment in the world. With a proven record of reliability spanning more than 50 years, it offers a foundation for understanding individual differences and applying that understanding to the ways people think, communicate, and interact.  The MBTI Career report applies your results from the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® (MBTI®) assessment to help you identify job families and occupations that are a good fit for your reported MBTI type.

FOCUS is an on-line assessment program which examines interests, skills, personality and values in relationship to careers. This is available free of charge to students. Contact the Career Center for access.

For information and access to these inventories, please contact the Career Center at 856-225-6046 or stop by the Center, lower level of the Campus Center.  Students taking the inventories on-line are required to  make an appointment with a counselor to review their results.
