The Work Based Learning Program is Working

The purpose of the Work Based Learning (WBL) Program is to expand and enhance the student’s learning through career experiences which are aligned with the student’s course of study and are designed to facilitate the student’s transition from school to career. The program is available to qualified students in each of the trade/technologies who have demonstrated readiness to benefit from placement in the program.

We would like to congratulate these students for their accomplishments. We would also like to thank the local companies for their community support.
