ABOUT US

Decoding Potential. Designing Futures.

At STRIDES, we merge cutting-edge technology with compassionate, human-centered counselling to help individuals navigate their career journeys with clarity and purpose. Our approach is rooted in advanced AI algorithms and neuroscience-backed assessments, developed in collaboration with leading domain experts.

These powerful tools allow us to decode an individual’s cognitive abilities, personality traits, emotional patterns, and core interests with exceptional accuracy. The result? Personalized career reports that offer far more than generic advice—they uncover unique strengths, hidden potential, and ideal pathways forward.

What sets STRIDES apart is our ability to combine scientific precision with empathetic, one-on-one counselling. We ensure every student, parent, or professional receives tailored guidance that aligns not just with their skills, but also with their values, goals and dreams.
