It may be more beneficial, however, to begin by exploring your WorkKeys foundational skills and then review the essential skills.  \nTo explore your WorkKeys foundational skills, you will need:  \n• your WorkKeys foundational skills score reports such as Workplace Documents, Graphic Literacy and Applied Math  \n• access to a computer/tablet and the Internet, and  \n• these instructions (which include an example completed Worksheet and a blank Worksheet for you to use)  \nTo explore your WorkKeys Essential skills, you will need your WorkKeys Essential Skills Report and the materials listed above.  \nBefore you begin this exercise, make an additional copy of the blank Worksheet so that you will have extra pages to record information on more jobs if you need them.  \n© 2024 by ACT Education Corp. All rights reserved.  \nStep 1: Review your WorkKeys Foundational Skills Score Reports  \nAfter taking the Workplace Documents, Graphic Literacy, and Applied Math tests, you will have three separate score reports that show your results. Read through the information in the image below to become familiar with the parts of the score report.  \nNow:  \n• Read through your Workplace Documents score report.  \n• Then, find your Workplace Documents Level Score and Scale Score and transfer those values to the spaces on the first page of the Worksheet.  \no If you have questions about completing the Worksheet, take a look at the example completed Worksheet.  \n• Repeat this process using your Graphic Literacy and Applied Math score reports.  \n• If you have taken Workplace Observation, Applied Technology, or Business Writing, enter those results on the last page of the Worksheet.  \n2 © 2024 by ACT Education Corp. All rights reserved.  \nStep 2: Match Your WorkKeys Skills to Jobs  \n• Go to: [http://jobprofiles.act.org/](http://jobprofiles.act.org/)  \n• Click the arrow next to Search by Your Skill Levels  \n• Click the buttons to mark all your WorkKeys scores  \nYou can match your WorkKeys skills to jobs in lots of ways. Let’s start with these 3 ways:  \no Best Matches shows you the jobs that have skill level requirements that are at or below your skill levels  \no Exact Matches shows you jobs that match your skill levels  \no Better Jobs shows you jobs that are at a slightly higher skill level than your current skill levels.  \n• To start, the button next to Best Matches is already chosen  \n• You will see a list of jobs that are Best Matches. These jobs require skills at or below your levels of skill.  \n• Scroll through the list of job titles until you see a title that looks interesting to you. Click on the job title to see more information about the job and its requirements.  \n3 © 2024 by ACT Education Corp.
