As we diligently work on constructing our comprehensive database and refining our best practices for Work-Based Learning, we encourage you to contact us using the form below for further details on accessing our forthcoming services.
Apprenticeships
On the job vocational training where the apprentice is typically paid a wage that increases as they gain more experience and knowledge under the guidance of a journeyman or master.
Once the apprenticeship is successfully completed, the apprentice receives a qualification in their chosen trade, which can lead to further career opportunities and advancement.
Internships
A temporary work experience where students gain practical work experience in a specific industry.
Internships can be paid or unpaid, and interns gain valuable skills, industry contacts, and work experience that can help them with their future career goals.
Job Shadowing
Students learn about a profession by spending time with a worker in their field. They follow the worker as they go about daily tasks, observing and asking questions about the profession.
This can be a great way to gain insight into a career and determine if it might be a good fit.
