Career Assessment

If you are undecided in your major or feel uncertain about your career choice, you can use one of our career assessment "tests" to help clarify your options. Career assessments are available in electronic or paper formats.

MyPlan.com is a self-paced, online system that will guide you through the steps of assessing your interests, abilities, and values related to career choices. Contact the Career Services office at 724-334-6095 or via e-mail, to obtain login information that will allow you to access MyPlan.com for free.

Paper "tests" are available in the Career Services office to help you identify interests and personality traits that will be important in choosing a satisfying career.  Contact the Career Services office at 724-334-6095 or via e-mail, to schedule a testing appointment.
