WBL Mission and Vision

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.  SCCPSS has over 500 students enrolled in Work Based Learning opportunities each year.
 

The vision of the Work-Based Learning Program includes:

  • Creating a seamless transition from career-oriented courses in High School to post-secondary education, credentials, and a successful career.
  • Opportunity for students to develop strong employability skills (soft skills) that will make them desired employees.
  • Application of the technical skills learned in related coursework while working in real life employment situations.
