The following is a list of vocational assessments offered by The Advising Center:

SIGI 3 is online software that integrates self-assessment with in-depth and up-to-date career information.  This System of Interactive Guidance and Information will help you:

  • Clarify your work-related values

  • Search for occupations and create options based on your values, interests, and skills

  • Obtain up-to-date information on hundreds of occupations

  • Determine education and training requirements for each occupation

The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) is an assessment designed to measure psychological preferences in how you perceive the world and make decisions.   It is one of the most widely used assessments for understanding individual differences and uncovering new ways to work and interact with others. The MBTI is frequently used in academic and career counseling to:

  • Increase self-understanding

  • Identify  preferred learning styles

  • Suggest  compatible careers

  • Identify  preferred work environments

The Strong Interest Inventory is an assessment that helps you discover your true interests so that you can identify, understand, and expand your career options.  By comparing your interests to the interests of people who enjoy their jobs, you gain insight into careers that may fit you.  The Strong will help you  examine your:

  • Personality and preferred work environments

  • Specific  areas of interest

  • Preferred styles of working, learning, leading, risk-taking, and team participation

The Campbell Interest and Skill Survey (CISS) measures self-reported vocational interests and skills.  It reflects an individual’s attraction for specific occupational areas, but also provides an estimate of one’s confidence in his or her ability to perform various occupational activities. The CISS can help students:

  • Explore new avenues in career development

  • Pinpoint areas of academic study that can build skills and increase career options

  • Identify occupations that help meet the individual’s needs
