“As an Educator, I am so excited about having this program available to my students. Not only
does it increase their knowledge in reading and writing, it improves their listening, teamwork and
math skills as well. It has been a pleasure seeing the students improve as they advance through
the various levels of the courseware. Not only are they enhancing their resume with the Work
Keys Certification, they are ensuring their goals toward successful employment in the future! ”
~ Leslie Ochinang, Dental Careers Instructor ROP
“Although the WINN training mathematics portion was difficult for me, it made me realize how

which will make me stand out over other applicants!” ~ Juanita Galvez, Dental Careers Student
