CMAP Career Motivation Analysis Profile
The Career Motivation Analysis Profile was designed to provide a comprehensive and fully integrated assessment for career guidance and development. It is partially based on the pioneering work of John Holland in the area of general career themes, though also incorporates personality characteristics, motivators and reasoning abilities. Combined, these elements provide job recommendations based on an individuals’ key interests, how well suited they are to the work environment and how capable they may be of coping with the intellectual demands of particular jobs.
