The Career Readiness Certificate is a nationally recognized credential that is composed of three WorkKeys® assessments that measure skills critical to on-the-job success: Reading for Information, Applied Mathematics, and Locating Information. In West Virginia, the Governor will issue Career Readiness Certificates to job seekers who demonstrate their job readiness levels in these three basic areas.

 

WorkKeys® is a job skills assessment system measuring “real world” skills that employers believe are critical to job success. These skills are valuable for any occupation and at any level of education. When you use WorkKeys® to show you are ready to work, you have an advantage with employers who accept or require job applicants to have WorkKeys®. A growing number of states-including West Virginia-are also adopting WorkKeys® to ensure that all their workers have needed skills and prove they have a skilled Workforce.
