Students will research to find an employment ad that advertises for a job that has a specific request for a certification or endorsement. Students will then research to identify the requirements for the certification/endorsement. (specific training, costs, education, etc.) Students will prepare a one paragraph summary of the requirements and report out to group.  Resource links are included.
