Utility Industry Math Boot Camp for the CAST Battery
The Construction And Skilled Trades Selection
System, CAST, is a battery of skill and ability tests designed and validated by the Edison Electric Institute, EEI, to
aid in the selection of candidates across a wide variety of construction and skilled trades occupations. This test battery measures skills and
abilities that are critical for effective job performance. There are four CAST tests: Graphic Arithmetic, Mathematical Usage, Mechanical Concepts, Reading for Comprehension.
The Utility
Industry Math Boot Camp for the CAST Battery was designed to help participants prepare for the CAST
tests. Both Mathematics and Mechanical Concepts topics found
in the CAST tests are specifically
and thoroughly covered during the Utility
Industry Math Boot Camp for the CAST Battery;
preparation for the Reading for Comprehension test of the CAST happens indirectly: participants must do a considerable
amount of reading-for-problem-solving
on their own and in teams.
Upon completion of the Utility Industry Math Boot Camp for the CAST Battery, hard-working, serious-minded
individuals should expect to achieve high scores on the CAST tests. The recommended pre-requisite for the Utility Industry Math Boot Camp for the CAST Battery is prior attendance at a Day of Remediation-Math.
