The Spanish Career Ability Placement Survey (CAPS) is a comprehensive, multi-dimensional battery designed to measure vocationally relevant abilities. Each of the eight ability dimensions is keyed to entry requirements for the majority of occupations in each of the 14 COPSystem Career Clusters. CAPS scores are interpreted in terms of examinees' abilities relative to others at the same educational level. Scores are also interpreted in terms of the COPSystem Career Clusters. Examinees learn which occupational areas are most suited to present abilities and which areas might require
a bit more education and training.
