Responsibilities of the District as the Facilitator of WBL

An effective work-based learning program must be a school or district initiative rather than the domain of a single individual. The best programs involve coordinators, teachers, and counselors and have the active support of the administration.

 

For maximum impact, school administrators must be willing to minimize policy and regulatory impediments, take appropriate risks, support career guidance, provide planning and coordination time, facilitate partnerships throughout the community, and encourage the involvement of all students and their parents.


School Benefits:

  • Expands curriculum and learning facilities.
  • Provides access to state-of-the-art techniques and technology.
  • Enhances the ability to meet the needs of diverse student populations.
  • Promotes faculty interaction with the community.
  • Contributes to staff development.
  • Makes education more relevant and valuable for students.
  • Encourages a cross-discipline dialogue regarding learning outcomes.
