Find Your Fit with the new Preferred Knowledge Quiz
The alis team has been working with partners in the Ministry of Education to revamp our popular career recommendation quizzes in CAREERinsite under the new Find Your Fit banner. The full revamp will take place over multiple stages but, recently, we've kicked things off with the launch of a Preferred Knowledge Quiz, alis’s first new career recommendation quiz in more than a decade.
The Preferred Knowledge Quiz asks you to identify any strong personal likes or dislikes of individual subjects across 12 key knowledge domains. While the subjects are grounded in the over 4,000 approved courses available within Alberta's high school system, the tool is designed to help Albertans and prospective Albertans of all ages and backgrounds. The likes and dislikes you identify within the tool will result in a personalized Find Your Fit profile that highlights individual occupations on alis that are likely to offer a good career fit for you. You can then go on to filter those occupations by other factors such as demand level, educational requirements, wage and salary data, and more.
The alis team will continue to expand the Find Your Fit system over the coming months as we update our existing Interests, Abilities, and Core Skills (AKA Skills for Success) quizzes to the new model. Each additional quiz you take will further refine the personalized career recommendations you receive.
