Choosing Happiness at Work

The value of being happy at work cannot be overstated. We spend so much of our time at work to not be happy while we are there. When we are not happy at work, it will inevitably spread to our personal lives which in turn affects those around us.

The Skills & Values Report

This interactive and informative, self-selection tool is designed to help individuals make work / career choices that are based on their most important Values and Transferable Skills.

Smoke and Mirrors: The Illusion of the Employment Services Sector

Smoke and Mirrors, The Illusion of the Employment Services Sector pulls back the curtain on the dark side of outcome based, government funded employment services. Despite the billions of tax dollars invested, the sector itself has become a significant barrier to employment for underrepresented groups, the very populations it is funded to serve. 

Your Personality Unlocked: Living Life to Its Fullest

What does it mean to unlock your personality? It is all about understanding who you are. Why do you do things a certain way? Why do some things come so naturally for some, yet for others they can be a struggle? Why do we get along well with some people, but not others? It all comes down to our personalities.

Career Dimensions Basics

Career Dimensions Basics Online focuses on individual workplace preferences. Unlike many career assessment instruments, Career Dimensions explores the actual work environment in which clients are most comfortable by examining a variety of areas, including: the natural talents brought to work, values, major job stressors, work philosophy and definition of success.

Many of our assessments can only be purchased by individuals with certain training or education.  Register for an account to purchase these products.
