Materials
There are two types of questionnaire. The Stage 1 questionnaire indicates interests in eleven key employment sectors. It shows the range and type of interests within particular employment sectors.
The Stage 2 questionnaires, one for each of eleven sectors, indicate interests within that particular employment sector.
The Stage 2 Sectors
Essential Services - Leisure & Advisory - Retail & Business - Government - Finance - Building & Construction - Production & Manufacturing - Extraction & Energy - Transport - Agriculture, Fisheries & Food - Communications
Administration
Time
A stage 1 questionnaire takes 15-20 minutes to complete and score. A stage 2 questionnaire takes 10-15 minutes. Typically, a client would complete one stage 1 and two or three stage 2 questionnaires.
Age
Passport can be used with clients from 14-15 years to adult.
Scoring
All the questionnaires are self-scoring and contain detailed instructions.
