They need to be attack orisons. (Cantrips are the wizard version.) Casting beneficial orisons like Bless, or healing people with Minor Cure, won't give her any Divine Achievement Points. (It might work that way eventually, but not yet.)
Her other option is to kill skeletons with any weapon. They grant Divine points no matter how you kill them.

Do they need to be attack cantrips or will any work? She has lightning arc but it won't let her slot it.
Lightning Arc is her best ranged spell, but Touch of Darkness (melee range) will do a lot more damage per hit. She must be holding a focus in her hand to slot these spells.
If she is holding a focus, and not able to slot these, have her change weapons by pressing the ~ (tilde) key. Then slot the spells.

So step by step here:
She can talk to the guy, red shirt shady looking fellow, inside of the temple to get an Acolyte's Battle Focus. Make sure it is slotted, and that you have hit the ` key or the green button between the bottom six slots, so that she has it active.
Once that is finished, hitting F and going to active attacks, she should be able to drag and drop them into her Battle Focus slots.

Primary attacks, cantrips, and orisons can only be placed in Slots 1 through 3 on a weapon, wand, staff or focus. Their icons have a white border. Secondary attacks, cantrips, and orisons don't have the white border around their icons, and they can only be placed in Slots 4 through 6.
Lightning Arc is a secondary orison. If she's trying to put it in Slot 1, 2 or 3, that might be the problem.

Lightning Arc and Touch of Darkness are her best ranged/melee attacks as a Cleric, those are the only two worth using, unless you are in a very niche situation.
Important note: Touch of Darkness doesn't hurt skeletons. (Luckily, it doesn't heal them either.)
If she's fighting skeletons, her best bet is to kill them with a weapon instead of her focus.

Anything cleric fits in a focus, they only have a single weapon currently. You can get a free focus from the Focus Supplier who is standing next to the cleric trainer.
Thats not entirely true.
They only have focus weapons but there are several different types.
At the first level of orisons it doesnt matter everything works fine with the free battle focus.
Once you train your orisons above first level you need a +1 focus and the type does matter.
Note early on it is handy to equip a bow or staff as your second weapon as focus range is limited to 20m. You will still get divine points with a bow if you are killing stuff like skeletons.
