Strong Interest Inventory Workshop

Take the guesswork out of career planning with the Strong Interest Inventory®, an assessment that makes career decisions easier by providing detailed information on top interests, work preferences, and personal styles.  In this workshop, participants will receive a personalized printout of their Strong® results, an interpretive overview, and information on how to match Strong® results with the OHSU job classifications and position descriptions. 

Participation requires completing a 30-minute Strong® assessment online prior to attending the workshop.  Further details provided upon registration.
