Smarts (MIDAS)

Based on Dr. Howard Gardner’s theory of multiple intelligences, the MIDAS assessment helps students identify and understand the way that they approach learning articulated in Gardner’s eight distinct intelligences (visual, verbal, kinesthetic, logical, musical, intrapersonal, interpersonal, and naturalist). Armed with this information, students are better equipped to identify a satisfying career, locate appropriate support when challenges arise, increase their own efficacy, and leverage their strengths for success.

Interest Profiler (RIASEC)

The Holland Occupational Themes is a theory of personality that focuses on career and vocational choice. It groups people on the basis of their suitability for six different categories of occupations. The six types yield the RIASEC acronym, by which the theory is also commonly known. Thrively uses the Interest Profiler in the field of career exploration to link students to additional career options.
