WOIS Career, Educational Program, and College information
The most comprehensive career and educational planning information available in Washington State. The WOIS system delivers information about more colleges, with more accuracy, than any other available system. The WOIS data is thoroughly updated on an annual basis and regularly as colleges make changes throughout the year. WOIS has a long-standing relationship with the colleges in Washington, many of which use the WOIS system. Thus they regularly provide accurate information for the WOIS system. Because WOIS has been developed with direct input from the schools in Washington, everything is readily available in one system to deliver any career and college planning lesson. In September of 2009, WOIS added a national college database, thereby extending planning resources to include schools across the nation.
