Career-testing packages designed to give you access to the top testing materials in the field of career counseling (most are unavailable to the general public) and are regarded to be the most reliable instruments in use today. Testing is administered primarily through your computer, without needing to meet with a counselor in person, although that option is available. You will receive via the Internet easy-to-understand, interpretive reports ranging to 20 pages in length. You will also receive via regular mail related support materials, booklets and handouts to provide additional sources of important information on the areas tested.

• Show when you've been the most productive and satisfied at work
• Provide an easy-to-understand description of your work personality, optimum work style and preferred work
• Assist you to better understand why you might be struggling with a specific career issue environment
• ive you a deeper understanding of how you interact with other people at work and how to improve those relationships
• Confirm or prove wrong a career direction you've been considering before you make a decision

This effective and efficient computer-based approach will enable you to gather the career information you want in a convenient and cost-effective manner.

Also available is an individualized, comprehensive report, prepared by , based on your career test results. This report is advisable when a career package contains information from numerous career tests, and you want all the information interpreted and summarized in a single document.

The cost of the career-testing packages ranges between $150 and $550, based on the extent of testing provided. Individualized reports require from one to 10 hours' time, depending on the scope of testing selected. The hourly rate is $225. Turnaround time is from 24 hours to one week, depending on the level of interpretation desired and the types and number of instruments administered.
