MN CIS 360

We Empower Lifelong Career Readiness

The Minnesota Career Information System (MCIS) is a comprehensive online career exploration system that operates as a small non-profit. MCIS offers career, educational and labor market information in one, easy-to-use tool, including:

  • Career interest, employability skill and learning style self-surveys
  • Information on colleges and programs of study
  • Short term-training, apprenticeship and employment resources

Students use their MCIS portfolio to plan and view progress toward goals and create a Personal Learning Plan (PLP) (Minnesota Statutes, section 120B.125). There are different versions of the platform available to suit your needs: elementary, middle school, high school and adult. Optional test prep packages, like college entrance (ACT/SAT) and placement (Accuplacer), can be added for an additional fee.
