ASVAB
The Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB) CEP promotes career literacy through personalized career exploration, awareness of career-field entry requirements, and future-oriented planning tools that help students develop an action plan they can share with parents and educators. The ASVAB CEP is about understanding options. The ASVAB, just one part of the ASVAB CEP, assesses academic ability and predicts success in a variety of career fields. The ASVAB is delivered in an online format with multiple-choice questions measuring verbal, math, and technical skills through subtests such as General Science, Arithmetic Reasoning, Word Knowledge, and Mathematics Knowledge.
The program offers a unique opportunity for all students to learn about themselves, whether they're interested in pursuing postsecondary education, work-based learning, or the Military. The Department of Defense sponsors the ASVAB CEP with a twopart mission: to provide a career exploration service to American youth and provide qualified leads to Military recruiters.* Participants have no obligation to talk to a Military recruiter or enter Military service. However, students in 11th grade and beyond can use their scores to consider enlistment.
