Work-based learning is.an educational strategy that offers learners an opportunity to reinforce and deepen their classroom learning, explore career fields, and demonstrate their skills in an authentic, real- world setting. Work-based learning provides learners the opportunity to learn and apply employability and technical skills that support success in careers and postsecondary education and can culminate in recognized postsecondary credentials.
As is shown in the presentation below, work-based learning includes a continuum of experiences ranging from less intensive opportunities, such as career awareness and career exploration, to more intensive opportunities, such as career preparation and career training.
