The ACT® Holistic Framework® describes the knowledge and skills that students need for success during their kindergarten through postsecondary education and throughout their careers. The four areas included in the framework are core academic skills, behavioral skills, education and career navigation skills, and cross-cutting capabilities (CCCs). This paper examines parent/caregiver support and knowledge of non-cognitive skills by focusing on the CCCs. To do this, a group of parents/caregivers of students taking the ACT® test were surveyed. The survey focused on five school programs corresponding to the five CCCs: (1) critical thinking; (2) creative thinking and innovation; (3) collaborative problem-solving; (4) information and communication technology; and (5) self-directed learning.
