The career-relevant characteristics of psychology majors at a small private university, a program of career development, and a student assessment of the program's effectiveness are identified and described. I focus on the results of the students' assessment. A questionnaire was distributed to a random sample of majors. Students rated sources and types of career information. Students gave higher ratings to the value of information about careers and career implementation skills than to information about career aptitudes and interests. Implications include continuing to educate students about the importance of gaining self-knowledge as a part of the career development process and continuing to provide a wide variety of sources and types of career information.
