PathwayU

Students begin with four short, engaging assessments:

• Interests
• Values
• Personality
• Workplace Preferences

Each survey is backed by decades of vocational research and PathwayU’s patented science. In less than 20 minutes, students uncover a profile that highlights what motivates them, how they prefer to work, and where they can thrive.

Combining the well-regarded HEXACO framework and Holland’s RIASEC Theory of Vocational types, as well as its own advanced predictive analytics, PathwayU offers students highly personalized matches. These career path options connect back to their strengths and interests.

Career profiles go far beyond job titles; they include day-to-day responsibilities, growth outlook, salary data, and required knowledge and skills. This gives students a holistic view of what their future could look like and why it aligns with who they are.

Exploration becomes actionable when career matches are linked to your institution’s programs. PathwayU maps each recommended career path back to the majors and courses you offer, so students see a clear connection between their education and their future job. Advisors can use this insight to help undecided or switching students make informed decisions earlier, reducing confusion and boosting retention.

For advisors and administrators, PathwayU provides dashboards that show student progress and insights. This technology also offers guidance for how to apply students’ results to educational opportunities, making advising meetings more meaningful and career services operationally efficient.
