What’s different about a Career Key partnership?

  • We have 25 years’ experience partnering with nonprofits, large institutions, and social entrepreneurs.

  • You get to know your students and clients better, faster with actionable data.

  • Unlike big career guidance platforms, our implementation is quick and easy. Just essential, self-guided tools increase student, client, and advisor adoption.

  • Unlike free career tests, we make the individual’s user experience the #1 priority (not commercial data mining), backed by published research and best practices of career counseling.  And we don’t sell ads or user data.

  • We are a family run, certified woman-owned business that listens to and values people working in social services, human resources, education, and counseling.

Career well-being for all

Career Key’s vision is that everyone deserves strong career well-being – that you like what you do every day. Research from Gallup and leading positive psychologists shows career well-being has the greatest impact on a person’s overall “subjective well-being” or happiness. Career Key’s solutions strengthen career well-being in practical, easy to scale and implement ways.

In Career Key Discovery Student and Transitions, we match a person’s personality to academic and work environments (programs and occupations) where they will thrive. This strengthens career well-being, leading to higher grades, persistence in a program/major, on-time graduation, job satisfaction and performance.

We constantly look for ways to do more to serve diverse populations in a rapidly changing world of work. In Fall 2022, we updated Career Key Discovery include more diverse, best-fit credentials, postsecondary, graduate and postgraduate education programs. Learn more in this Career Key Blog.
