The StudentKeys Program

StudentKeys represents a series of short, accurate, self-scoring assessments designed to identify and enhance communication, learning, motivation, and career choices in students. It is a simple, yet profound program focusing upon personal “strengths”, then applying that information to everyday communicating and learning situations.

StudentKeys utilizes six self-interpreting workbooks that parents, teachers, and counselors can review with a student independently or in small groups.

Students who can recognize their strengths early on, will be better prepared to make life’s most critical decisions. Studies have proven that students who used StudentKeys during freshman orientation are more likely to return to their sophomore year than students who did not use StudentKeys in orientation.

Why Use Strengths?

The StudentKeys Program, developed by PeopleKeys, was designed to identify soft-skill strengths in young people. Many college campuses as well as corporations are embracing “strengths” as a concept to fuel “ownership” of individual and corporate success. The emphasis in many institutions today is to identify student and employee “strengths” then give individuals opportunities to confirm their strengths through work or class endeavors. This innovative approach to empowering people is commonly called a “strength-based” approach.

Additionally, higher education has typically concentrated on a remedial approach. Student assessments historically identified deficits and then programs were developed to remediate and correct the limitations of the student–focusing on their weaknesses and ignoring their strengths. Strength-based approaches to communicating, learning, motivating, and making career decisions focus upon the positive qualities of the individual and how to enhance, encourage and maximize those areas.

A Trusted Choice for Thousands of Educators
