StrengthsQuest – helping students reach their full potential: StrengthsQuest is an inventory which helps students understand their natural talents and ways of being. When students better understand their talents and apply these ways of being to everyday actions, they can turn the talent into a strength. This tool has been used to help students work in teams and approach challenges. Additionally, the online tools connected to this inventory help students understand how to best approach their academics, relationships, and their career search.
