Holland Codes (John L. Holland)

Holland Codes, developed by psychologist John L. Holland, classify careers and personality types into six categories: Realistic, Investigative, Artistic, Social, Enterprising, and Conventional (RIASEC). Each person has a unique mix of these types that influence their interests and work preferences. The codes help individuals identify careers that align with their personality, leading to greater satisfaction and success. By understanding these categories, people can make more informed decisions about education, training, and job choices that suit their natural inclinations.
