Credential Validation

Workforce Readiness & National Credential Validation

Elevate operates as an authorized testing center for multiple national certifying bodies. Credentials are proctored on-site and issued by the certifying organization — not by Elevate. This ensures every graduate holds credentials that are portable, verifiable, and recognized by employers nationwide.

WorkKeys assessments and the National Career Readiness Certificate (NCRC) validate foundational workplace skills across all career pathways — supporting the institute, not replacing the industry-specific credentials earned in each program.
