The Who Am I? Self Assessment Game was initially developed for post-secondary students and alumni. The game has since been revamped for additional use by high school and by training and development professionals for public and private sector organizations. The game:

• provides a means of self assessment in a fun, interactive and engaging environment, which is intended to alleviate career related anxieties;
• assists players in understanding the career exploration process and their place within the world of work;
• emphasizes the value of self assessment in the career decision making process;
• provides players with support and inspiration through group interaction;
• encourages players to become more aware of both internal and external influences that may be influencing career decision making
• reassures players that there are many career options available to them; and
• informs players that the most important factor to consider when making a career decision is who they are.

The Who Am I? Self Assessment Game is recommended to be facilitated by an experienced career counsellor, guidance counsellor, or training/organizational development professional. It may be used as:

• a complement to existing career development workshops, programs and/or services;
• a tool to prepare people for individual career counselling appointments;
• an alternative or in addition to conventional assessment tools; and/or
• a means to engage and/or train company employees for professional development purposes
