1 Credit(s)
1 Lecture Hours
Work-Based Learning (WBL) is a structured worksite learning experience in which the student, advisor, WBL director and worksite supervisor/mentor develop and implement a training agreement. WBL is designed to integrate the student’s career-related skills into a work environment. WBL may include regular meetings and seminars with school personnel and employers for supplemental instruction and progress reviews. Depending upon program requirements and advisor approval, up to 8 hours may count towards graduation. Since the College cannot guarantee employment, it is not advisable to depend upon WBL College credit the last semester to meet graduation requirements. Prerequisite: Enrollment in a participating major, referred by advisor as “work ready,” completion of WBL application process, and an approved education training agreement.
