Congratulations to Mena High School JAG student CORI HILTON who completed the 2021 National Career Readiness Certification earning platinum status.
A National (Arkansas) Career Readiness Certificate is a portable credential based upon the WorkKeys® assessments that demonstrates to employers that an individual possesses the basic workplace skills required for 21st century jobs. Getting a NCRC will allow an individual to show prospective employers that he or she possesses the basic skills they are looking for. Even if a job seeker has a high school diploma, GED or post-secondary degree, the Arkansas NCRC further verifies that he or she can handle tasks such as reading instructions and directions, working with figures, and finding information - tasks common in today's workplace.
National Career Readiness Certification (Arkansas Career Readiness Certification) Areas
Workplace Documents – The ability to understand information in common workplace documents such as letters, memos, procedures and instructions.
Applied Mathematics – The ability to use mathematical reasoning in solving common workplace situations.
Graphic Literacy – The ability to understand and extract information from graphics such as diagrams, tables, forms, graphs, and charts.
To be certified, you must take all 3 assessments and score level 3 or better in each assessment - (lowest score of three assessments determines the overall level of certification). Each assessment is 55 minutes long.
