NOCTI was originally established to offer individuals from business and industry the opportunity to be granted post secondary credit toward an education degree. Experienced Worker Assessments were developed by NOCTI as a means to assess and validate an individual’s specific competency level within a field of work. Upon successful completion of your state’s assessment requirements, post secondary institutions may grant a specified number of credits within the core area of expertise. Over thirty states offer some form of this educational opportunity for individuals wanting to obtain a degree in Career and Technical Education.

Each state has specific requirements that the teacher candidate must fulfill. Area Test Centers (ATC) have been established within various states to facilitate the assessment of teacher candidates. To learn more about how NOCTI is used in your state, you must contact the designated Area Test Center.
