  •  Include the types of assessments you would use and the rationale for your choice of each assessment.
  •  Use at least 3 quantitative assessments and 2 qualitative assessments (i.e. clinical interview, card sort etc.)
  •  Each assessment you select should be thoroughly discussed in terms of the appropriateness of use with your client and should include statistical data to support your decision such as the population on which the assessment was normed, the validity and reliability of using the assessment with your client, and any limitations the assessment would have if used with diverse and special populations.
  •  Include information on how to use electronic resources such as O*NET and CAGS as well as the Dictionary of Occupational Titles to describe the mental, physical, and vocational preparation for work.

The Following are headings to be incorporated in your paper:

  •  MBTI
  •  Self-Directed Search
  •  Strong Campbell
  •  Results of assessment
