The document outlines three levels - College Ready, Career Ready, and College & Career Ready - for assessing student readiness after high school. College Ready requires meeting benchmarks on the ACT, COMPASS, or KYOTE exams. Career Ready requires meeting benchmarks on the ASVAB, WorkKeys, or an industry certificate as well as the KOSSA or another academic readiness exam. College & Career Ready, earning the most points, requires meeting benchmarks on a career technical exam and another academic or career readiness exam.
