COU 630 Career Counseling Homework- Southern New Hampshire University
In your first draft of the Homework Report, you address the introduction, homework review, and homework administration. You will now build on that draft with your homework scoring, homework results interpretation, recommendations, and conclusion. You are using the same results you received from your partner for your first draft as you complete this second draft.
As part of your Homework Results Interpretation, you will again explore validity and reliability. When considering validity and reliability of the instruments, together, often what you are looking for is how well the instruments predict suitability for a career. Typically the results will match up the individuals' interests and personality with a potential career path.
