Industry Certification Lab

Industry certifications are evidence of skills or knowledge related to an occupation, industry or technology. Each year, the KDE Office of Career and Technical Education publishes a list of valid industry certifications that can be referenced by educators. 

During the 2024 KACTE Summer Conference, an industry certification computer lab will be open to all business and marketing teachers. 

The lab will be equipped with the latest computers and software to experience valid certification exams. It will be staffed by an experienced technician who can provide assistance with any computer-related issues. Free access will be given to select exams that are provided by Certiport, A*S*K Institute and Comptia/TestOut. 
This is an opportunity to:

• Experience the same testing environment your students will encounter;
• Familiarize yourself with the content to ensure your coursework aligns;
• Help improve your chances of increasing your students pass rate; and
• Become industry certified in the field you teach.

The industry certification computer lab will be open July 9-10 until 4 p.m. ET.
