School Support and Services
Work-based Learning (WBL) Support
- A
determination needs to be made as to:
- What type of
work-based learning (WBL) activity, or activities, students are to
be engaged in (i.e., classroom speakers [workplace], mentor models,
blended workplace tour/job shadows, internships).
- Whether activity, or activities, is
school driven or individual teacher driven.
- Contact WBL
Program Supervisor.
- If the
activity is classroom/individual teacher driven, the WBL Program
Supervisor, or staff, can coach the teacher on the following:
- Referral to the WBL
Handbook (on-line or hardcopy), which has information and / or mini
handbooks on each WBL activity.
- Processes/procedures for each type of activity; master copies
of forms required for each activity; and, to a lesser extent,
contacts/non-financial resources.
- If the
activity is building driven, and relates to internships, see Internships.
- If the
activity is building driven and relates to the development of a WBL
Instructor position, discussions and decisions need to be made
regarding budget for the position. Once the decision has been made
on funding for the position, CTE support can be given on teacher
certification (if necessary); hiring process; curriculum materials;
and on-going teacher training, mentoring, and support.
- If the activity is a building-wide
activity, to the extent possible, WBL staff will provide support in
the areas of processes/procedures, brainstorming, and/or
resources.
