Take Interest Skills And Personality Assessments
What is Self-Assessment?
Self-assessment is a process by which you learn more about yourself – what you like, what you don’t like, and how you tend to react to certain situations. Knowing these things can help you determine which occupations and work situations could be a better fit for you. You may recognize some of these tools if you ever worked with a career counselor. The Career Center provides several assessment programs which may assist you in identifying career options.

Also provided is the MBTI as an adjunctive assessment instrument for students who are having difficulty in choosing a career. The MBTI assesses personality preferences which may help identify occupational settings most compatible with an individual's personal style. Students may take the MBTI for a $10 fee, after an initial consultation with a counselor.
