Tennessee — America at Its Best!

Partner with ACT to ensure Tennessee students are the best success story yet.

The Tennessee Department of Education (TDOE) has approved and will completely fund ACT® WorkKeys® as a career readiness assessment for all Tennessee high school seniors.

WorkKeys helps measure workplace skills that employers prefer—preparing students for superior job performance and life beyond earning their diploma. WorkKeys is also the foundation of the ACT® National Career Readiness Certificate™ (NCRC®), a nationally recognized credential for job seekers.

Get started today to help students document and advance their employability skills, while giving educators additional insight into instructional programs that help students acquire skills that employers need.

Tennessee Resources

ACT offers resources to help assist with strategies for assessing and certifying students’ career readiness and providing students with more choices in identifying career pathways using our career exploration activity and ACT® WorkKeys® JobPro database.
