Beginning in 2022, first-time, first-year students enrolling at UNO were offered the opportunity to complete the CliftonStrengths assessment as part of their orientation. The assessment, developed by Gallup, helps students discover their talents.

The student response has been outstanding; more than 2,100 students have completed the assessment. If you work or interact with first-time, first-year students, you have the opportunity to take part in developing this shared language and help students realize how they can use their natural talents to enhance their experience at UNO.
