Career Ability Placement Survey (CAPS)
CAPS is part of the COPSystem which has become one of the most extensively used systems of assessing interests, abilities and values in Canada. One of the features that makes this system of assessment tools so unique is the broad range of applications that it covers.

- group guidance units as a starting point for exploring the world of work
- individual counselling with students or adults and with special needs individuals
- to assist students in planning their high school and post secondary career paths
- to widen occupational horizons for early school leavers by specifying occupational opportunities available to them within their particular area of interest
- as the basis of a comprehensive career search package for unemployed individuals.
The Abilities (CAPS) component measures the following eight areas that have been identified as entry requirements for the majority of jobs.
- The aptitudes measured are: Mechanical Reasoning, Spatial Relations, Verbal Reasoning, Language Usage, Word Knowledge, Perceptual Speed and Accuracy, Manual Speed and Dexterity, Mathematical Ability.
