This is a Web Based Career and Education Planning System designed to provide students with personalized career and education exploration and planning. It is easy to use and offers valid and reliable research-based career planning designed for students:
Self Assessment: Students begin by assessing their interests, values, skills and personality through a series of reliable and valid self assessment instruments.
Career Exploration: Students research occupations that match their self assessments. Our extensive database includes detailed information on 1200+ different careers.

Additional tools are provided to summarize results and help students narrow down their options.
College Search: Students can research 2 and 4 year colleges/universities, technical schools, and other job oriented training programs. Our database currently includes detailed information on 7,200 post-secondary institutions. Search options including tuition, location, athletics & activities, enrollment details, and majors help guide the user to find the right college for them to research and apply to.
Online Portfolio: The system includes a dynamic online portfolio builder that not only reports back information about the student’s assessments, careers and education possibilities, but also captures information about career objectives, educational plans, and personal achievements, information that is considered crucial in the career exploration and education planning process.
