The 22-minute MAPP test comprises 71 different questions regarding your ‘likes’ and ‘dislikes’, and should be taken rather quickly, since the ‘reflexive’ answer is preferable to the ‘intellectual’ answer.

The MAPP test has undergone extensive validity and reliability testing by a number of psychologists, including correlating the results to the Strong Interest Inventory®. Reliability studies also indicate that the MAPP test is consistent over time.

Aurora Virtual School is Yukon’s Distributed Learning (DL) school. As such, we are the newest public school program in the Territory.  At AVS, our programs meet all territorially mandated learning outcomes and are directed by highly trained, Yukon-certified, teachers.  

At AVS, we provide what has commonly been known as “distributed learning.” A more apt and current descriptor would be eLearning.  This is when a student is primarily at a distance from the teacher, and can be accomplished anywhere there is access to an Internet connection.  This means a student could be working at home, in another school, a public library or abroad. 

The Working UP program can help you:

• improve literacy and essential skills;
• increase your workplace skills and experience, including apprenticeship;
