About
This quiz assesses workplace readiness skills at a 9th-grade level, covering essential competencies students need as they prepare for their transition from high school to the workforce. The content spans five critical domains: professional communication and interpersonal skills (including tact, body language, and communication fundamentals), workplace safety and health protocols (covering emergency procedures and repetitive stress injury prevention), financial literacy basics (automobile insurance types and checkbook reconciliation), workplace culture and relationships (mentorship, supervision interactions, and conflict resolution), and career awareness concepts (entrepreneurship, labor relations, and workplace trends like telecommuting and outsourcing). Students need foundational knowledge of professional etiquette, basic financial management principles, safety protocols, and an understanding of modern workplace dynamics to successfully complete these problems. Created by Jessy Richard, a grade 9 teacher in the US who designed this assessment to evaluate students' readiness for workplace environments. This quiz serves multiple instructional purposes: it functions effectively as a diagnostic tool at the beginning of a career readiness unit, provides comprehensive review material before students enter work-based learning experiences or internships, and offers valuable formative assessment data to identify areas where students need additional support before graduation. Teachers can deploy this assessment as homework to reinforce classroom learning, use it as a warm-up activity to activate prior knowledge, or implement it as a practice test before high-stakes workplace readiness evaluations. The content directly supports standards including CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RST.9-10.7 for technical reading comprehension and aligns with Career Readiness standards focusing on workplace safety, communication skills, and financial literacy competencies that prepare students for successful workforce entry.
