At UBTech, we are dedicated to being accessible with accurate placement, and assessment services. We strive to provide a supportive and constructive environment for students, the college, and the greater community, to achieve their educational and personal goals.
Career Guidance
We offer the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) and Strong Interest Inventory, which are helpful tools for determining a career path through personal and occupational exploration. Contact the Student Success Center for more information.

Are There Assessment Deadlines?
For some programs, there are no deadlines since they are open-entry. However, if your program has specific start and end dates, you will need to check with the Student Success Center for specific assessment deadlines.
What if I Don’t Meet the Entrance Requirements?
If you don’t meet the entrance requirements, you can retake the assessments after waiting one week. For some people, testing can be a nerve-wracking process. To help you prepare, we have provided some helpful links below, including study guides for the TABE assessments.
