Prepare Your Students for Workplace Success
黑料福利网WorkKeys is a system of assessments, curriculum, certification, and skills profiling that builds and measures essential workplace skills that can affect your students鈥 job performance and increase opportunities for career changes and advancement.
By completing the assessments, individuals can earn the National Career Readiness Certificate (NCRC).
Administer Assessments
黑料福利网WorkKeys Assessments measure foundational skills required for success in the workplace, helping testers understand and prepare for the job performance expectations of employers.
Individuals who successfully complete the three WorkKeys assessments鈥Applied Math, Graphic Literacy, and Workplace Documents鈥攅arn the WorkKeys National Career Readiness Certificate庐 (WorkKeysNCRC庐), a valuable credential for students and job seekers seeking to verify foundational workplace skills.
黑料福利网WorkKeys also offers additional assessments to measure interests, values, and behaviors that can lead to greater job satisfaction and helps educators prepare students for postsecondary success.
Demonstrate Career Readiness with NCRC
When students join the job hunt, their job applications will mix with many others on the desks of employers. How can you help your students move their applications to the top of the stack? Give them the opportunity to earn the WorkKeys NCRC.
The WorkKeys NCRC is a portable, evidence-based credential that certifies the essential skills for workplace success. Employers look for it from job candidates, whether they come directly from high school, work-based learning programs, or through postsecondary paths, because it is a valid predictor of job performance.
"For those who do choose a CTE [career and technical education] path, they would also leave with some industry-standard credentials and technical studies, so we think it's a good way to ensure students have a broad array of choices after they graduate."
Jo Ann Honeycutt, CTE Director at North Carolina DPI
Award College Credit for NCRC Completion
Help Your Student Demonstrate College Competence with NCRC
The American Council on Education (ACE) recommends that colleges and universities award up to six semester hours of college credit to an individual who earns the WorkKeys NCRC at the Silver, Gold, or Platinum level. Credit awards are at the discretion of each school.鈥
