Summary
This session has provided an overview of, and an opportunity to experience, NAF’s new student certification assessment to be launched in the fall of 2012. The system is designed to measure students’ knowledge and application of key career-related technical content and 21st century skills essential for both college and career success. The NAF student certification assessment system will help high schools comply with federal and state accountability requirements and will be recognized by postsecondary institutions and employers. But none of this will happen without academies implementing the NAF model and teachers understanding and implementing the NAF curriculum, and then using the certification assessment system to allow students the opportunity to earn the NAF certificate. This is your opportunity to be NAF Next.
