SAM is a standardized assessment of interests, abilities
and needs essential for job success. Individuals may be
assessed prior to entering a job or training program to
determine how an individual's career profile correlates
to critical job entry and training requirements. Aided
with this information, counselors will be able to identify
and recommend realistic, meaningful career goals and
objectives for their students or clients. |
