Data & Assessment

The Data Analysis & Assessment Team supports the University of Toronto Mississauga Career Centre (UTM Career Centre) and its partners with data analysis, assessment, evaluation, and research. Our goal is to foster a culture of evidence building and data-informed decision making. Our approach is centered on high quality data, data literacy, collaborative partnerships, and continuous improvement. Our impact is visible as we equip students and recent graduates with the knowledge, skills, attitudes, and behaviours to self-assess, explore career options, gain experience, express skills, pursue learning, reflect, and make informed career decisions.
