Work-Based Learning (WBL) is an educational approach that bridges classroom learning with real-world employment, allowing students to gain hands-on experience, develop technical skills, and explore career paths. It involves structured, supervised activities-such as Service Learning, Job Shadowing, Internship, Co-Op, or Youth Apprenticeship.    

 

At the Center, you will begin social, personal, and work transition training as part of your preparation for employment.  Career development opportunities are available to you through job market information, resume preparation, the job application process, and developing job interview techniques.  

 

The Employability Rating System at the Center emphasizes the importance of exemplifying good work habits at school and on the job.  Prospective employers can use the rating system to help determine if you are a good candidate for one of the School-to-Career opportunities.
