The Origins of wowiDirect

Why wowiDirect Was Created

The World of Work Inventory (WOWI) was developed to help individuals explore the full range of career paths—from skilled trades to professional occupations. Over time, it became clear that many students needed a more focused approach to degree-based career planning.

wowiDirect was created to meet that need.

Using the same integrated assessment approach as WOWI, it focuses specifically on careers that typically require associate, bachelor’s, or advanced degrees, helping students connect their interests, work style, and knowledge to realistic college-to-career pathways.

Many students face an important question

What major should I choose? And which careers would actually fit me?
