Career Planning Instruments

	1. Career Directions Inventory (CDI)   The Career Directions Inventory (CDI) was developed to guide career planning for both adults and students. The CDI identifies interest patterns and matches those interests to educational and occupational groups. Advanced methods of item selection and scale construction were employed in the development of the CDI. It is differentiated from other career interest measures by its up-to-date norms, wide range of specialty groups, broad applicability, use of multivariate statistical procedures, and computer-based methods for detecting unreliable records. The result is a comprehensive, accurate, and sex-fair assessment of vocational interests. Sample Report Pricing

	2. Jackson Vocational Interest Survey (JVIS)   The JVIS consists of 289 pairs of statements describing job related activities and requires approximately 45 minutes to complete. The JVIS employs a forced-choice format, asking the respondent to indicate a preference between two equally popular interests. The detailed JVIS report includes the basic interest profile, a profile for 10 general occupational themes, a profile of similarity to 17 educational major field clusters, a ranking of 32 occupational group clusters, validity scales, an academic satisfaction score and other information. A narrative summary of the 3 highest-ranked educational and occupational clusters is particularly useful. Finally a section entitled "Where to Go From Here" offers information on related career exploration books and activities. Sample Report Pricing
