What you are looking at
The Sims Capability Assessment™
A structured way to see what students already build. Students do capable things and cannot name them; the record names them, in language an employer recognises.
92 questions
20 about them and their goals, and 72 that measure capability. Ten of those ask for a story.
12 capabilities
Aligned with the NACE Career Readiness competencies, so the language travels to any campus or employer.
Practitioner and AI both score
Each scores every story against the same rubric, anchored in student stories. Where they disagree, the practitioner's score is the one that counts.
Written from their own words
Evidence is drawn from what the student wrote, not from a bank of phrases.
