Testimonials from Customers:
"Today I used the bingo and playing cards. Last week I had my students view a
video that introduced them to the personality types also these types were seen
by my students when they use nycareerzone.org website. Today I used the
cards to reinforce the many various occupations and related these occupations
to the personality types. I want my students to know about as many various
occupations. They aren’t limited to what occupations they see day to day."
N.G. also indicated on the survey that playing and bingo cards were useful in
teaching about Holland Codes and occupations.

If I have a special need, or if I need something quickly, they are there to help me out!"

As a graduate student in Counseling Edu./Counseling Psy., I thought that it would be a simple process in locating and implementing a quality Career Development Assessment, to help the teens in the Youth Ministry which I oversee and the adults which I consult in Career Development. However to my surprise this was a more tedious process than I had anticipated, that is until I came across the Learning 4 Life website during my research of the Holland Code SDS.
Learning 4 Life turned out to be a big blessing in that not only did I receive assessment booklets at a cost effective price but I also received other support materials and most importantly staff support which was always available to help me with any questions or challenges that I encountered. The staff of Learning 4 Life provided me with expertise unlike that received in any other material support system.
Considering that I received knowledge far beyond the price of the material I felt that it would be a disservice not to thank and commend Dr. Askew and the Learning 4 Life Team.
Professionals such as Learning 4 Life, keeps Career Development Counselors on the cutting edge of the field through the Holland Code Model.
Sincerely,
J. D. S., Counseling Edu./Counseling Psychology Graduate Student
This is a note to thank you ( Dr. Askew) for all the assistance, support, and information in our implementation of the Self-directed Search. We are using this tool as a standard assessment for all of our students enrolled in our Credit Recovery Program. Vocational coaches use the results and the college and career finders to assist students with developing their life plan which includes career and academic goals. The additional information you provided us on the SDS was helpful for training our staff.
The service you have provided us has been impeccable. As you know, you even arranged an overnight delivery so we could have the materials in time for a training.
We will definitely be using the SDS with all of our Credit Recovery Programs and relying on your Center to provide the materials and information we need.
