Workforce Skill Assessment

Workforce skill assessments are designed to measure foundational and personal skills as they apply to the workplace. The DWED Assessment Center utilizes ACT's WorkKeys for job skill assessment and the corresponding KeyTrain online training curriculum to improve skills measured by WorkKeys. WorkKeys exams are the foundation of the ACT National Career Readiness System, a job skills credentialing system.
