Career Assessment Services (CAS) is a vocational assessment program facilitated by Michigan Career and Technical Institute (MCTI). The program provides students:
Students come to MCTI’s campus to participate in in-person evaluation and training for four (4) weeks. Students live in the on-campus dormitories during this time and participate in assessments and classwork Monday through Friday during the duration of the program. Students may remain in the dormitories on weekends but will not have organized class activities. Students are assigned to an MCTI Vocational Rehabilitation Counselor/Program Manager who will provide vocational counseling and guidance throughout the CAS process.
Throughout their time in CAS, students will participate in a variety of assessments, hands-on experiences, and learning opportunities. Weeks one (1) and two (2) are focused on assessing student skills, abilities, interests, independent living skills, and preparedness for participation in training. Students will also participate in hands-on trade experiences, trade tours, and work readiness training. In weeks three (3) and four (4), students will work in pathways related to their trade of interest. These pathways include trade specific math instruction, too and equipment exposure, study skills, and individual trade assessments.
Upon completion of CAS, the student’s assigned MCTI Vocational Rehabilitation Counselor/Program Manager will make a recommendation regarding entering into a trade training program at MCTI. Students enrolling into a trade after CAS will be scheduled to attend for the next available opening in that trade program.
