Utilizing the powerful Birkman Method, we will help you:

  • Identify your areas of interest
  • Ascertain and optimize your personal strengths
  • Determine your learning "style"
  • Identify your best career choices
  • Develop a personal career and educational plan that will help you achieve your career goals

 We understand…

Feeling satisfied in a career takes more than simply knowing what interests you.  Besides considering what you like to do, you must also recognize how you like to do it.  In other words, you need to identify your career "style."  For example, suppose you are talented in the sciences, and you have always excelled in biology.  How can you identify which type of working environment will best suit your career style?  Would you prefer a medical career working closely with other people in a busy clinical setting?  Or is your style more compatible with the quieter, more solitary environment of the research laboratory?

To utilize the Birkman Method®, you will need to answer a series of questions about your personal preferences which will allow you to identify your Birkman colors on a grid.  Your Birkman colors represent your career interests and style -- not only what you like to do, but also how you like to do it.

 That's not all …

 In addition to your comprehensive Birkman Career Profile, you will also have the opportunity to participate in a selection of Career and Life Skill workshops or private consultations that will further aid you in determining your best career choices.
