Informal Assessments for Transition: Employment and Career Planning

Successful transition from school to the adult world, whether to postsecondary education, employment, or military service, is a society-support outcome for the majority of students. Career planning is a developmental process that builds on the student's knowledge, skills, and experiences. More than 60 easy-to-use assessments provide data in four areas of critical to transition planning and decision making for employment and careers: interests and preferences, abilities and skills, career exploration, and job search and securing. Highly practical and reproducible, the resources include instruments that are simple to more complex, brief to comprehensive, and geared for use with students, parents, teachers, and employers.
