Then a sixth module drafts your mission, vision and values in your own words. Progress saves as you go; it is free and complete today.

Technology career path for extroverts. A path has a start, a direction and a destination. The assessment gives the direction, the career pages the destination, and the STEM Farm track the start at zero. Technology careers run on persistence through hours of troubleshooting, abstract thinking about invisible systems, and adaptability to tools that change every year. Nursing, physician assistant, systems analysis, industrial engineering and epidemiology run on communication and collaboration; if people energize you, they surface.
