Technical College Occupational Assessment
An occupational assessment is required for admission to the Technical College High School.
Usually, this occupational assessment testing is arranged through a student's sending school guidance counselor and takes place at the sending high school or middle school. As needed, testing may be scheduled at the Technical College High School by calling (610) 345-1800, Ext. 2007.
The CareerScope Occupational Assessment includes an interest inventory and measures aptitudes aligned with Federal Department of Labor standards. The list of occupations/ job groupings included in the report given to the student and guidance staff highlights the occupations in which the student has shown high interest and aptitude. By understanding his/her strengths, a student can focus on choosing occupational areas that provide better opportunities for success. A major goal of occupational assessment is to help each student successfully further his/her education and enter the work force.
