California Overview

California is the consortium's newest member. CTECS is proud to serve as the assessment provider for the CTECS Workplace Readiness Skills Assessment© (also referred to as the WRS Assessment©, the WRS Test©, or the WRS Retakes©), our most popular assessment. 

CTECS is crafting a new form of the WRS Assessment tailored just for California's needs, based on California's Standards for Career Ready Practice (crosswalk provided here). That means, the assessment covers only the 12 Career Readiness Skills most valued by California.

We are rolling out our new assessment forms over summer 2017, to be ready for a California pilot in fall. Please contact us for more information about the pilot. Meanwhile, click here to discover more about the original WRS.
