Does anyone have experience with ACT WorkKey assessments? Do you offer them to your students, and if so, who pays? Are these assessments of any value??

We offer work keys to seniors who are completing a pathway in cte. Students who score have enough receive a certification. Many of the larger industries in our area require a potential employee to take a work keys exam at their own cost. So by providing it to qualified seniors for free, we are offering them a real asset.
