DONâT DELAY!! RE-ORDER TODAY!!
As the school year winds donât forget to renew your CIS lease.
Changes and enhancements to CIS for next year include:â
Revisions to the Programs of Study and Training titles. Updating this
index will result in the grouping of similar programs of study, adding
some programs and generally refining the list to more accurately reflect
the program offerings at postsecondary schools and colleges.
New tools on the CIS Administratorâs site- This will help you create
reports and screen views useful for coordinating your siteâs portfolios.
Occupational Wage data has been expanded to give you the option of viewing
wage information for different states.
CIS will be available via the internet only.
New add-on features for next year include:
Dependable Strengths-The widely-accepted and tested Dependable Strengths,
a tool used in identifying work-related skills and strengths will be an
optional add-on to CIS. The six-step Dependable Strengths Process,
developed by Bernard Haldane, PH.D., leads the user through identifying
past good experiences, translating these to personal strengths,
determining a career path using their top strengths, and selecting
occupations that fit into that career path. The on-line version of the
program is engaging, easy to use, and users can store data and return to
it at a later session for further exploration.
Thomson Petersonâs Academic Practice Test Package â This package provides
students and clients an opportunity to prepare for many of the aptitude
and academic qualifying tests most widely used in the United States.
Practice tests available include:
o PSAT
o SAT
o ACT
o GED
o CLEP
o ASVAB
o Civil Service exams for 10 different occupations.
The practice tests offer content, conditions, and difficulty similar to
the real thing. There are two or three full-length choices for most of
the practice tests, giving usersâ extended practice experience without
using the same set of questions. Most of the tests also feature a
bookmark, letting the user return to a partially-completed test when
necessary.
