Work Ready Communities
The ACT WorkKeys National Career Readiness Certificate (ACT WorkKeys NCRC®) is an assessment-based credential issued at four levels. The NCRC measures and certifies the essential work skills needed for success in jobs across industries and occupations for no cost!
When you require or recommend the ACT WorkKeys NCRC from your applicants, you’ll tap into the most qualified labor pool in your area. Jackson County is currently working towards achieving certified status and needs active participation by the business community in order to achieve that status.
