Assess the Gaps in Your Current Offerings

As the school year transitions into full swing, your learners have hopefully already hit the ground running. Career services professionals like yourself have a two-fold job: attending to the needs of current students and also expanding and honing your services to help the next flock of learners. How do you decide the right way to expand your career services?

First and foremost you need to assess the gaps in your current offerings. Ask yourself the most crucial questions so you can develop a plan for the future. If you keep these issues in mind as you move through the school year, you’ll be more than ready to provide even better services going forward.

Who’s Already on the Path to Success

For Malone, PathwayU is much more than a career assessment. It’s an integrated and easily accessible platform that allows us to advise students at every stage, from their first year to graduation and beyond.

PathwayU provides a solution that aligns closely with our mission and the pledge we make with each student to help them imagine their calling and career path. Supporting our brand, PathwayU delivers a powerful platform for student self-discovery, vocational match, and guidance to an educational pathway filled with a sense of meaning.

You are the most reliable, brilliant, and inspiring company and team [that I have worked with] in my past 30 years... innovative, genius, creative, fun, and generous

By collaborating with PathwayU, we can display the potential of an ORU degree. Whether it be through showcasing career options that fit the student's individual needs, how earning potential rises with higher education, or solidifying the fact that a college education is worth it. This information is powerful.

By showing the rate of return early, you get students placed in highly desirable fields post-graduation and increase student retention within the University. For 2021 ORU currently holds a 90% student retention rate and is on track to break a 99.1% career outcomes rate.

We engage students early in their education lifecycle. PathwayU has been a great way to start the journey by incorporating self-exploration and workforce knowledge into our discussions and in the classroom.

PathwayU’s ability to connect with our other platforms and websites is very useful and provides information that connects the ‘dots’ and encourages reflection. It also empowers them to take action, helping students get one step closer to purposeful living.

Student feedback has been very positive and overall really appreciate the ability to take the assessment and receive their results immediately. In the Career Center, we appreciate the encouragement in the system which provides a framework for starting their exploration while also encouraging a visit to the office if they desire extra assistance in reviewing their results.

PathwayU understands student & career development making it user-friendly for career educators to work with students on major & career exploration. Students see meaningful connections/alignment with career paths quickly and the connection to our University programs enhances the relevancy of the tool. We have shared with Academic Advising and plan to roll out even more campus-wide. Thank you!

"At Saint Mary's College, we use the PathywaU assessment and it is by far one of the best assessments available for students discerning interests, values, personality, and workplace preferences! The reports and language of the assessment speak well to the mission of a liberal arts college. We appreciate the ease of interpretation of assessment results, ability to explore majors and careers aligned with interests, and the job board for finding internships and full-time positions. It is an all-around great resource and I highly recommend PathwayU for other colleges and universities!"

"PathwayU has been great to work with. We began onboarding with PathwayU back in January 2020. I can not say enough about their support staff and documentation provided during our onboarding. Their step-by-step process in getting started was great. Any time we have questions, the staff is very quick to get back to us. We introduced PathwayU to students, staff and faculty mid-August during this crazy pandemic. So far the response has been great. Thank you PathwayU team for a great product."

"I find that having results of four assessments in one tool is a huge benefit. In the past, if I was working with a student to interpret their scores on one assessment and found that it produced results that weren't resonating with them, the Strong Interest Inventory, for example, the experience was very disappointing for both of us. With PathwayU, there is always at least one piece that inspires conversation and reflection."

"My team and the professional coaches I work with LOVE PathwayU! We find it to me an excellent mix of psychology, self-understanding, and linking to the kinds of careers that will give our scholars long-term fulfillment. I tell EVERYONE I know about PathwayU."

"I love the way it moves students from assessment tools (which are refined and shortened) through occupational information and to actual organizations and then jobs in your geographic area. To my knowledge, no other online program does this full-scope process. Also it's very user-friendly and attractive for students - we love it and use it all the time."

“PathwayU provides us the ability to offer a very easy to use online platform to augment the career development services we offer. Their unique focus on guiding students by the predictive measures of where they will find joy, purpose and meaning is something very important to us. Living out one’s calling is integral to a sustainable and meaningful life.”
