Work-based learning programs are educational experiences that combine classroom instruction with practical, hands-on training in a real work environment. These programs help students and participants develop job-specific skills, gain industry knowledge, and build professional networks while still in school. Common examples include internships, apprenticeships, job shadowing, and cooperative education. Work-based learning bridges the gap between education and employment, making participants more prepared for their future careers.

Familiarity with career readiness platforms, student information systems, and compliance documentation is typically required.
