Comprehensive Vocational Evaluation

When an individual is at a crossroads in their life, a comprehensive vocational evaluation can be a key step towards a more satisfying career path.

This is a time to take a holistic view of what seems like an often complex life situation and confirm the skills and interests that will make the right fit in the world of work.

A vocational evaluation is typically a daylong process. This will begin with a 60 – 90 minute interview to gather background information which includes:

  • Family background
  • Medical history
  • Education
  • Work history
  • Vocational interest

Relevant Vocational Evaluation Testing

The rest of the evaluation time is tailored toward relevant testing. Tests are chosen to address an individual’s specific needs and can include:

  • Aptitude
  • Intelligence
  • Achievement (Reading, Spelling, Math)
  • Personality Characteristics
  • Work Values
  • Vocational Interests (likes/dislikes)

Following the scoring and interpretation of testing, a report is prepared to summarize the test results, also address career recommendations, and answer referral questions. A follow-up meeting with the client can occur to map out a recommended vocational plan.
