Why Schools Should Use a Strengths-Based Approach
More than 700,000 students each year get the opportunity to discover and develop their strengths.
That's because more than 1,000 educational institutions know that a positive, strength-based approach to student development:
- increases engagement
- improves wellbeing
- fosters greater academic achievement
- creates an exceptional campus culture
Educational leaders at these schools understand it is important to focus on what's strong with students, not what's wrong.
They see firsthand how giving students the chance to turn their talents into strengths:
- transforms the way students experience their education
- sets students up to succeed far beyond the classroom
- develops engaged faculty, staff and leaders, too
Join us as we help millions more students reach their full potential and thrive using their strengths.
How CliftonStrengths Helps College Students Thrive
For decades the best leaders in higher education have used a strengths-based approach to create thriving universities that:
- retain students
- engage students
- improve student wellbeing
First, they used a program called StrengthsQuest to help students identify their unique talents using the CliftonStrengths assessment.
Now that solution is called CliftonStrengths for Students, and it's used by colleges and universities to help students:
- improve their self-awareness and teamwork
- deepen their engagement on campus
- chart their right path postgraduation
CliftonStrengths for Students is also a great solution for pre-college students who are preparing for the transition to life on campus.

CliftonStrengths Isn't Just for Your Students
No matter the type of workplace, a strengths-based approach is essential for greater engagement and wellbeing.
If your faculty, staff and leaders aren't thriving and engaged, how can you expect your students to be?
Consider the following quote from Don Clifton, the inventor of CliftonStrengths:
As an educational leader, that's your responsibility. You can't deliver on it if your employees aren't engaged and thriving in their work.
We help educators everywhere create cultures that weave strengths-based development into every corner of their school or university system.
Supporting thriving students starts with engaged faculty, staff and leaders who know their own CliftonStrengths and how to develop those of others:
Start With CliftonStrengths
Encourage every faculty and staff member to complete the CliftonStrengths for Students assessment.
Coach and Develop Leaders & Their Teams
Help faculty, staff and others learn how to use their CliftonStrengths with students and in their roles.
