WorkKeys tests are ACT skills assessment exams designed to measure career readiness and assess foundational and soft skills required for success in any workplace. The exams are used to determine a person’s aptitude for specific careers, demonstrate expertise, and help measure skills that can affect job performance.

North Dakota resident students may apply for either the North Dakota Academic or Career and Technical Education Scholarship. WorkKeys online tests may be taken right up until the June 5 deadline.

See https://www.nd.gov/dpi/parentscommunity/students for more detail as the results are immediate.

If a student does not obtain a score of at least “5” on each of the 3 designated WorkKeys assessments, the student may retake the test to attain a higher score. A score of at least “5” on each of the 3 WorkKeys exams can be used when a student’s academic qualifications or ACT scores alone do not qualify the student for the ND CTE Scholarship.

Students are responsible for paying for the WorkKeys exam(s) either individually or all 3 exams here.
