Learn about the National Career Readiness Certificate at an information session at Durham Technical Community College. Wednesday, June 18 from 2:30 to 4:30 p.m. in Collins Auditorium on the Main Campus at 1637 E. Lawson Street. The National Career Readiness Certificate provides job seekers with a credential that certifies their skill level and provides employers with an efficient way to assess workplace skills and make employment and training decisions. Higher scores indicate an individual's readiness for a greater range of jobs.

Community College System, the Durham and Regional Partnership Workforce Development Boards, and the Durham and Orange County JobLink Centers.
