Welcome!

What is the CAREER READINESS ASSESSMENT?

The CAREER READINESS ASSESSMENT is a “learn-and-apply” hands-on assessment. It is not a questionnaire. It does not ask about or test your prior knowledge and it does not include math. 

What is being assessed in the CAREER READINESS ASSESSMENT?

The assessment determines an individual’s ability to read and understand written instructions, learn and absorb new information, apply the new information to solve simple problems, and it also measures an individual’s perseverance. 

What is the theory and research that underpins the assessment?

The CAREER READINESS ASSESSMENT has been used for many years to determine whether individuals have an aptitude to learn, adapt, and perform well in modern training programs and work environments. The results have been studied over time and have been incredibly effective.

What is the predictive validity of the assessment in future performance in training programs and in automation-laden jobs? 

An individual’s success in the CAREER READINESS ASSESSMENT is strongly positively correlated to the individual’s success in both training programs and subsequent work environments. 

How is the CAREER READINESS ASSESSMENT graded?

The proprietary scoring for the CAREER READINESS ASSESSMENT includes numerous categories which cover the hard and soft skills measured by the assessment. A final result is then calculated using these individual scores. A high score indicates that you can be confident that you’ll be able to successfully complete any training and workplace activity that you set your mind to do. 

How long does the assessment take?

This assessment takes 1 to 3 hours to complete and is best done in one session.
