Work-Based Learning

Technical and Career Programs

Work-Based Learning combines programs of study with structured on-the-job experiences in businesses and industries.  Placed in a work environment which complements classroom learning, the Work-Based Learning students practice and develop skills and competencies which have been identified by participating businesses and industries.  The Work-Based Learning participants are better able to see the connection between education and work and are able to earn wages while learning from skilled professionals.  The Work-Based Learning experience allows students to test potential careers and provides exposure to expanded career possibilities.  Work-Based Learning students should enter the workforce better equipped with employability skills, technical capabilities, and educational backgrounds, enhancing their future career options.

Work-Based Learning also provides existing employees the opportunity to sharpen and expand skills while receiving college credit, which could lead to more job security and advancement.  All Work-Based Learning students shall be aware of and comply with business/industry safety standards and regulations for employability within their field of study.

Variable credit is awarded on the basis of one semester hour per 45 industrial contact hours.

  (135 or more work hours/semester) 3 SH
