National Career Readiness Certificate
All Juniors take the ACT WorkKeys each spring. This exam measures not just what you know, but how well you apply what you know. This assessment provides the opportunity to earn a National Career Readiness Certificate. Higher ratings indicate a broader range of employment opportunities in the future.
For information about the ACT WorkKeys assessment, the advisory lesson that provides information on how to interpret your student's results in relation to their future opportunities and course of study, and how your student can earn a National Career Readiness Certificate, please refer to www.nbexcellence.org/district/act.cfm.
