Certified work-based learning (WBL) programs are opportunities whereby students can achieve academic competence while focusing on career and technical education careers. The program is coordinated and supervised by school district staff so that there is a strong connection between classroom learning and the work experience.
Students, employers, and teachers are held accountable to the learning experience by the student’s goal of completing a portfolio of industry competencies (tasks) and basic employability skills. Upon successful completion of the experience, the student is awarded a certificate from a state or regional agency. In some program areas, advance standing through a technical college or university is possible. Wisconsin encourages many different types of work-based learning opportunities.
