Vocational Testing

Career Guidance and Vocational Testing services are available at the San Diego Psychological Center, Inc. They are specifically designed for the following individuals:

• High school students considering college majors or career opportunities
• College students preparing to enter the work force
• People in career transition, and the recently unemployed.

We also offer specialized career guidance and programs for those with learning disabilities.

Focused interviewing and standardized testing with a vocational psychologist will allow our clients to have a greater awareness of their aptitudes, vocational interests and preferences, and interpersonal dynamics, as they may impact upon job performance and career satisfaction.

Individuals completing a career guidance program will become more informed and directed in their choice of a career. Our clients will be provided with these tools to help them achieve their objectives.
