Transferable Skills Scale

PRODUCT DETAILS

JIST® Publishing. Grade 9 and up.
Research suggests that only 25% of the skills we use on the job are technical skills specific to that kind of work. The other 75% are transferable skills - like the ability to manage a group, create a spreadsheet, or speak persuasively - and are especially important to job seekers. This scale is a short assessment designed to identify an individual’s strongest transferable skills. It asks individuals to rate their skill levels on a total of 96 tasks. The resulting score helps define their skill levels in eight categories: Analytical, Numerical, Interpersonal, Organizational, Physical, Informational, Communicative, and Creative skills. Each skill set is also specifically linked to O∗NET job titles, and an Occupational Exploration worksheet helps individuals further research the jobs that match their transferable skills. 8-1/2" x 10" trifold brochure.
