Work-based Learning Experiences for Career and Technical Education Programs

An work-based learning experience for Career and Technical Education awards is designed as a paid or unpaid learning experience. It enhances lecture and laboratory instruction and is provided at work sites appropriate to the discipline. The work-based learning experience allows a student to have practical hands on training and to apply learned concepts and theories in a workplace setting. The five types of work-based learning experiences:

• Clinical
• Internships
• Practicum
• Internship
• Apprenticeship

Clinical experience must take place in a health care setting.

Prior to enrolling in one of these courses, you must consult with the program’s Work-based Learning Experience Coordinator. See the Work-based Learning Experience Student Handbook at Work-based Learning Experiences (WBLE) Student Handbook .
