Try different ways of working and discover what fits.

You’ll try out four quick, realistic scenarios based on things students actually do, like campus jobs, student org projects, and internships.

It’s not a quiz or test. It’s a chance to try things on, see what feels natural, and start thinking more clearly about where you might fit.

You’ll leave with a better sense of your strengths to help you take your next step.

This program is self-paced. It takes approximately 30-40 mins to complete.
