ACT WorkKeys is a career-readiness assessment that helps students demonstrate the foundational skills needed for success in the workplace. At Clayton High School, eligible seniors have the opportunity to take WorkKeys and earn a National Career Readiness Certificate (NCRC) that recognizes their workplace skills.
Students are assessed in areas such as Applied Math, Graphic Literacy, and Workplace Documents. Earning a WorkKeys credential can help students showcase their skills to employers, strengthen their resumes, and prepare for success in college, career, and the workforce.
WorkKeys is more than a test—it’s a way for students to show employers what they can do!

The Workkeys test is given to all seniors who are CTE Concentrators (have taken 2 courses in a like pathway with 1 being an upper level). This test is a national recognized test that measures their skills in 3 areas, Workplace Documents, Graphic Literacy, and Mathmatics. Students will earn a Bronze, Silver, Gold, or Platinum Certificate based on their test score.
Employers use the certificate to learn more about the potential employee's skills and knowledge, thus making it an advantage to have taken it.

We are excited to announce that Johnston Community College has agreed to award articulated credit for students who earn a Gold or Platinum ACT National Career Readiness Certificate (NCRC). Students earn this credential by showing mastery on three of ACT's WorkKeys assessments: Applied Math, Graphic Literacy, and Workplace Documents.
CTE Concentrators who earn a Gold or Platinum NCRC are eligible for both of the following courses:
ENG-110 Workplace Writing Essentials (3 Credits)

Students need to save their certificate and score report as they will need to provide that to JCC's student services office to receive the articulated credit.
