The WorkKeys(r) tests for Career Readiness Certification will be offered four times in September in Wayne County.

The Wayne Occupational Readiness Keys for Success (WORKS) program will provide testing sessions on Sept. 9 and Sept. 23 between 8:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. and from 4:30 to 9 p.m. on Sept. 17.

All of these sessions will be held in Room 136 in the Walnut Building at Wayne Community College.

People can pre-register by calling 919-739-7004.

The cost to take the set of three skill assessments -- applied mathematics, locating information, and reading for information -- is $30, but assistance to cover that cost may be available.

The Airman and Family Readiness Center on Seymour Johnson Air Force Base offers free testing to military personnel and their dependents. The next session will be held from 1 to 4:30 p.m. on Sept. 16 at the Watkins-Das Education Center computer lab.

Those wishing to prepare for the CRC may take advantage of the self-directed instruction and skills upgrade training offered in the WORKS Lab, which also is located in Room 136 of the Walnut Building.

The lab is open from 9 a.m. to noon on Mondays and Thursdays, 1 to 4 p.m. on Mondays and Tuesdays and 6 to 9 p.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
