Our Mission

Help children understand their own aptitude, explore their career interest, select study subjects at school and degree programme at university with the objective of achieving a successful career. 

Study Partner is proud to present the innovative and highly regarded Cambridge Occupational Analysts (COA) programmes and aptitude tests for young people in Hong Kong.    COA was founded in 1986 in the UK and has worked with more than 3,000 schools in the UK and across the globe in over 50 countries.

The COA programmes and tests are essential tools to help young people make informed decisions about their future career and higher education choices.  They help children

..  think about their own interests and future career

..  understand their own aptitude

………..  ascertain their own strengths versus children in similar age group and education background

..  relate their interests and strengths to possible careers

..  consider how to select their study subjects at school

..   choose university and degree programme

Unlike other tests in the market, the COA tests clearly map out how the children can use the results to plan their study and Higher Education paths
