What is Clifton Strengths?
The instrument’s emphasis on identifying students’ top five talents and focused the attention of developing those talents will help students at all stages of their professional development, from a successful transition into University life to assisting with career exploration. The use of this instrument will provide skill development to the graduate and undergraduate community by empowering our students to invest in their personal success through their engagement with the University of Chicago.
Each student at the University of Chicago will receive one Clifton Strengths Access Code throughout their time at the university, as well as the opportunity to participate in 1:1 Strengths Coaching with a certified coach. This code will give you access to the Clifton Strengths assessment, which is designed to help you understand your natural talents and how to use them to achieve success. The 1:1 coaching sessions will provide you with personalized guidance on how to leverage your strengths to achieve your personal and professional goals.
We believe that these resources can be invaluable tools in your personal and professional development, and we are committed to providing you with the support you need to succeed. Whether you are just starting your academic journey or are nearing graduation, we encourage you to take advantage of this opportunity to discover your unique strengths and use them to achieve your goals.
