Work Keys
WorkKeys is a skill assessment system developed by ACT (the same
company that developed the SAT) that measures skills in the following
areas:
- Applied Mathematics
- Applied Technology
- Business Writing
- Listening
- Locating Information
- Observation
- Readiness
- Reading for Information

These measurements can then be compared
to the skills required for a variety of jobs that have been profiled.

WorkKeys website at www.act.org/workkey.
Areas of deficiency can be addressed through remediation programs
such as Key Train or WIN that are available in a variety of locations
throughout Western Indiana.
Locally the WorkKeys test is administered by the Department of Workforce
Development at the WorkOne office. For more information on testing
