- Dr. Frederic Kuder (1903-2000) was one of the premier innovators of vocational assessments. His 1938 Kuder Preference Record became one of the most-used career guidance instruments in schools and colleges, and was taken by more than a million people worldwide over the course of several decades. Following the success of the Preference Record, Kuder turned his attention to developing an occupational interest inventory, using selected preference items, but scoring for a range of occupations. He eventually combined the preference record and the occupational inventory into a single form, the Occupational Interest Survey. In his 1977 Personnel Psychology article “Career Matching,” Dr. Kuder commented, “A young person is looking for more than an occupation in the abstract sense; he or she is looking for a career, which is a highly individual matter. Instead of looking for occupations, why not look for individuals he or she resembles, particularly individuals who are enthusiastic about their work? Why not capitalize on this fact?” In 1979, Dr. Kuder suggested the idea of Person Matching in a paper presented at the annual meeting of the American Personnel and Guidance Association. Dr. Kuder commented that it was not enough to suggest occupations alone. After all, he reasoned, everyone in a given occupation is not alike. He argued that it might be more informative to match a career-seeker with each of a number of people, each with their unique occupational journey. He suggested that a pool of individuals of both genders, employed in a broad sample of occupations, take his interest inventory and provide their “career

- Why professional development? The benefits of computer-assisted career planning systems (i.e., Kuder® Career Planning System) are increased through the guidance of a teacher, counselor, administrator, or workforce development staff. A notable meta-analysis of career interventions found that computer-assisted interventions that also included interaction with a counselor were superior to instances of students or clients interacting with the computer alone (Whiston, Brecheisen, & Stephens, 2003).
