Providing Easy Access to Self-Administered Assessments
The barrier to entry into the assessment world for many is too high. Most assessments today are administered by practitioners in a one-on-one setting, after which the customer is provided with a PDF report of their results and sent on their way. Many people also tend to think of career planning as a one-time meeting with a high school guidance counselor, but as their interests change over time, they tend to forget what they derived from these sessions. With the SuperStrong, users are provided with unlimited access to the assessment and the results data.

"A lot of my contemporaries are in that mid-career stage of their lives and somewhere along the way, they lost their path," says Darrell Mockus, CTO of CPP Innovation Labs at CPP, Inc. "Now with access to instruments like the SuperStrong, people who feel stuck in their career can rediscover aspects of their interests. Sometimes the mere act of seeing these insights again rekindles a fire they forgot they'd had."
