What Does FOCUS Include?
FOCUS consists of six short sections of questions, each covering an important
step in the career planning process:
- Self Assessment – your interests and work values
- Education and Training
- Personality and Life Values
- Leisure Time Preferences
- Current and Future Skills
- Personal Development Needs
Once you answer the questions, FOCUS scores and summarizes your results
in a personal profile that you can use to explore and compare occupations.
You can complete the questions at your own pace since FOCUS stores your
information in a confidential file---ready for use whenever you are. You
can answer questions from any section, however, we recommend you start
with the Self Assessment. You can also get a printout of any FOCUS screens.
See attached information for more details on what FOCUS can do for you.
