Focus 2

FOCUS 2 guides users through a reliable, intuitive career and education decision-making model to help them choose a major, Certificate, or diploma. Explore occupations, make informed career decisions, and take action in their career development. FOCUS 2 provides valid and reliable assessments, including Work Interests-Holland Code, Personality, Values, Skills, Leisure Interests, and Career Planning Readiness. Assessment results are matched to supporting majors and career options with over 1,000 occupations and up-to-date career information. With our bold new look and cutting edge functionality, the FOCUS 2 systems can be used on all devices.

Students using FOCUS 2 will register using the password “jets” (all lower case, without quotes), then select your category (Degree Seeking, Diploma Seeking, Certificate Seeking, Employee, or Alumni).  If you have never registered before, you will need to click register and fill out the form.  You will need to register using your South Georgia Technical College email and use a password that is 8 characters in length while containing an upper and lower case letter and 1 number. From here you can complete the 5 Self Assessments to start your career planning.

The FOCUS 2 systems reflect the ground-breaking work of nationally prominent psychologists, Dr. Frank J. Minor of IBM, Dr. Donald Super, considered by many to be the founding father of career development, Dr. Roger Myers and Dr. David Tiedeman, both former presidents of the APA counseling division, and Dr. David Campbell of the Campbell-Strong Interest Inventory. FOCUS 2 has been fully certified in meeting the highest level of standards established by the Association for Computer-Based Systems for Career Information and conforms to criteria established by the National Career Development Association and the U.S. Department of Labor.
