What is an ACT® Work Ready Community?

​​ACT Work Ready Communities (WRC) empowers states, regions and counties with data, processes and tools that drive economic growth. Participants are leveraging the ACT® WorkKeys® National Career Readiness Certificate® (NCRC®) to measure and close the skills gap — and building common frameworks that link, align and match their workforce development efforts.
We all have a stake in making our country more competitive and closing the skills gap that threatens to paralyze our economy. Change starts at the grassroots level, by providing a community-based framework that:
  • Links workforce development to education
  • Aligns with the economic development needs of communities, regions, and states
  • Matches individuals to jobs based on skill levels
"Success doesn't come from what
you do occasionally, it comes from what
​you do consistently."  ~Marie Forleo
