Students enrolled in WBL have the opportunity to intern locally and gain entry-level experience in their related career field.  

WBL students are more certain of their career path before leaving high school and/or before declaring their major in college.  

The mission of the Work-Based Learning Program is to assist in providing a highly trained, technologically sophisticated and career oriented young work force. This is accomplished by developing partnerships between business, industry, students, parents, school systems, coordinators, post-secondary institutions, and registered apprenticeships which will lead the participating student into meaningful careers.
