WOIS

The Career Information System

Garfield-Palouse High School is a registered user of the WOIS online information system. WOIS is a Washington-based information system; the information and data about careers, academic programs, and institutions of post-secondary education relates to Washington State. Students interested in career exploration have many tools and options within the WOIS system. In order to access many of WOIS's tools (some are described below), students must log on using the school username and password (you can get this information from Mrs. Nawash – we are not allowed to publish the username and password online).

The WOIS website is: www.wois.org

CAREER INFORMATION: Students can access this section of WOIS by logging on to the "Online Information System" using the school username and password. Look up information by occupation, (academic) program, or school.

Within the Career Information section, there is a link for "Tools". There are several career inventories and other career exploration tools located within this link. Students who are not sure what they may want to do after high school may find the tools especially valuable.

PORTFOLIOS: Students can create an online WOIS portfolio to save information about careers, resumes, and results from different tests and interest inventories. This portfolio is password protected so that only the creator of the account has access. In order to create a portfolio, log on to "Online Information" and then choose "WOIS Portfolio".
