C-LOR exists to answer these questions by redefining how we understand personal potential.

You were built for something, let’s find out what!

Feeling uncertain?

What am I good at doing?

Where do I start?

What do I want to be?

How do I make it happen?

Will I be fulfilled in my career?

Do I need college?

HELP!

You are not alone.

Many students report feeling uncertain and ill prepared for life after high school.

• Education is out of sync with industry and career prep is lacking.

• Students often lack awareness of available career paths and opportunities.

• Rising tuition + student debt worsen the problem.

What if… And, how?

• You could identify your natural, innate talents distinct from your grades, education, and life circumstances?

• You could apply those natural talents to relevant and viable careers?

• You could confidently choose between joining the work world, pursuing a trade, or continuing your education in college?

Meet C-LOR

You’re A-HA moment!

C-LOR uses the YouScience Cognitive Assessment, an online aptitude-to-education-to-career convergence platform. By first identifying a person’s natural aptitudes + interests + values, our AI then matches them with their best fit careers and the educational and/or experience alternatives to determine their career pathway.

Our message is simple: We empower young adults with self-knowledge to create a clear plan for their future.

So, What Are Aptitudes?

As unique to you as your DNA
Aptitudes are the natural abilities to learn or perform, not to be confused with skills, knowledge, or interests. These intrinsic traits are not based on grades, education, or experience.

Aptitudes: What you are naturally designed to do.
You are born with aptitudes that do not change beyond age 14. As an example, if you are right- or left-hand dominant, you might consider your dominant hand to be your brain’s dominant aptitude. Tasks or skills using your dominant hand feel natural whereas those same tasks would be difficult if using your non dominant hand.

Note, one hand is not intellectually superior to the other, as is the same with your natural aptitudes. But, your aptitudes don’t develop on their own...

Skills: What you can learn to do.
If you’re naturally righthanded, you would then develop skills with your right hand, like throwing a ball. Your aptitude alone will not make you a good pitcher. But, you develop skills and knowledge more easily when you develop them with your natural aptitudes.

Interests: What you would like to do.
Your interest might then be baseball. You acquire interests based upon your exposure; therefore, interests tend to change over time. In many cases, students might have an aptitude but not an interest in a career because they’ve never been exposed to it.

The test that doesn’t feel like a test!
