Vocational Evaluation


Comprehensive vocational evaluations help JVS program participants as they work to choose career and/or work goals. Offered over a two- to five-day period, the assessments can be completed at JVS or at the New Jersey Division of Vocational Rehabilitation Services office nearest you. The evaluations are appropriate for individuals who have a wide range of academic levels—from non-readers through college level—and are adjusted to each person’s needs. Test results are presented in comprehensive written reports that provide specific vocational recommendations based on a thorough assessment of interests, abilities, and work behaviors. The tests are conducted via the following methodologies:

  • Structured Interviews
  • Interest Inventories
  • Work Samples
  • Standardized Tests
  • Situational Assessments

JVS also provides Mobile Vocational Evaluation services at school sites for students between 14 and 21 years of age (please see “School to Career Transition Services” above for additional student services).
