Kansas WorkReady Certificate – Free at your local Workforce Center
The Kansas WORKReady! initiative was launched by the Kansas Department of Commerce to improve the job training and marketability of Kansas’ workforce and drive future economic growth for the state. This workforce development initiative assesses the “real world” skills of Kansas’ workers, provides valuable job training and helps companies reliably match the right people with the right jobs.
Obtaining a WORKReady! Certificate is free and easy. Once an individual has made the decision to pursue a WORKReady! Certificate, there are three simple steps to complete the process: 1. Visit KANSASWORKS.com and identify a convenient location to complete the free assessment. Assessments are offered through the state’s 26 workforce centers across Kansas. 2. Contact your local workforce center to schedule your assessment. There are three components to the WORKReady! Certificate and each assessment takes approximately 50 minutes for a total time of about three hours plus registration. 3. Present the WORKReady! Certificate to potential employers to demonstrate you are “WORKReady!”
Attached is a two-page overview that provides more detail on the Kansas WORKReady certificates.
