The ASVAB is one of the most researched and respected aptitude assessments in the world. It assesses academic ability and predicts success in a wide variety of occupations. The ASVAB Career Exploration Program (CEP) is a comprehensive career planning program that combines a multiple aptitude test, an interest inventory, and career planning tools -- all designed to help 10-12 grade high school and early post-secondary students find their dream jobs. When used together, these components give young people the confidence to map out a post-secondary plan that aligns with their individual skills and interests. The Department of Defense sponsors the ASVAB CEP with a two-part mission, to provide: a career exploration service to U.S. youth and qualified leads to military recruiters. The CEP is offered FREE to participating high schools as a public service.
