WOIS is an immense tool for students to explore careers, create goals for their future, make educational plans to reach their goals, and find the training programs and the right schools to help them achieve their dreams. From September 1, 2013 to June 30, 2014 there were a total of 326,001 pages or hits viewed compared to 403,356 the previous year. If one takes the 326,001 pages or hits viewed and divide by 180 days this works out to 1,811 pages or hits per day from our students using the program compared to 2,240 the previous year.
