Today, however, workplace readiness demands the same level of knowledge and skills as college readiness. . . . many of the jobs that can support a family require knowledge and skills comparable to those expected of the first-year college student (ACT, 2006) And by postsecondary we mean primarily two-year or four-year institutions, trade schools, and technical schools. American College Testing (ACT) defines college readiness as the level of achievement a student needs to be ready to enroll and succeed—without remediation—in credit-bearing first-year postsecondary courses.
