Work - Based Learning

Work-Based Learning

Work-based learning (WBL) is the “umbrella” term used to identify activities that collaboratively engage employers and schools in providing structured learning experiences for students. Work-based learning applies to a broad array of learning experiences, from career awareness and exploration to career development and application. These experiences focus on helping students develop, transferable skills that are needed for postsecondary education and employment. WBL experiences may include job shadowing, community service/volunteering, career-focused research projects, school-based enterprises, entrepreneurship and community-based work experiences. Visit http://www.p12.nysed.gov/cte/wbl/ for more information.

The objectives of work-based learning include mastery of the actual skills needed to do a particular job successfully, as well as learning the “soft” universal work readiness skills needed for successful employment such as, following directions, communicating, getting along with fellow employees taking initiative and being on time for work, which are often indicators for success.

In District 75, many high school students participate in diverse work-based learning experiences throughout the school year with the support of the support or their school and/or Office of Transition Services and Postsecondary Planning Initiatives. This also include the Summer Youth Employment Program (SYEP), and Work Learn & Grow (WLG) Program.
