Business and Community Partnerships

Work-based learning is an opportunity that prepares high school students for the workplace through a combination of academic and on-the-job learning. It is based on the belief that our youth must be better prepared for the future if they are to be successful in a competitive, global economy.

Work-Based Learning is learning that results from work experience designed to increase the knowledge and skills of the learner. Students continue to take course work related to his/her career interest, but also being paid, on the-job training or a non-paid internship through a structured workplace learning program.

The Career, Technical, and Agricultural Education (CTAE) Advisory Board is composed of community/ industry partners and employers who provide feedback on important updates and needs in various industries. As a valued employer of our teen employees or other stakeholders, I invite you to be a part of our advisory meeting to help us better understand how we can prepare our students for the workforce.

As a work-based learning placement site, employers play an integral part in developing our scholars for success in the workforce. The mentor handbook is outlined to help supervisors/mentors understand how the program works.

Help us create awareness about careers in your sector. Sign up to participate in our career day and job fair.
