Shared Folder on Google Drive
I have created a folder that I shared with you on Google Drive. In order for you see to that folder I need for you to provide me with a gmail address. If you do not have a gmail or Google account, we can create one during class.
WorkKeys Assessments
Individuals can earn the ACT NCRC by taking three WorkKeys® assessments.
- Applied Math – For more information about the Applied Math assessment – click here

WorkKeys assessments measure real-world skills that employers believe are critical to job success. Test questions are based on situations in the everyday work world.

VirtualJobShadow.com
I will be using VirtualJobShadow.com for providing information about assignments used in Career Center.
Staff and students of the Northwest Tech Campus – Alva may access their user accounts at https://www.virtualjobshadow.com/login/AC5760/users/?.
Students will use the same username and password as used for WorkKeys assessments (except for a few students). Your username will be your first and last names with no spaces and your password will be a six digit number representing your birthdate such as 020503 if you were born on February 5, 2003.
