What are work-based learning programs?

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.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a work based learning coordinator, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Work-Based Learning Coordinator, you need a background in education, career counseling, or workforce development, often supported by a relevant degree and experience in school or business settings. Familiarity with career readiness platforms, student information systems, and compliance documentation is typically required. Strong communication, organizational, and relationship-building skills help bridge the gap between students, employers, and educators. These competencies are crucial for effectively coordinating hands-on learning experiences that prepare students for future careers.

  • Participate in parent-teacher conferences twice per year
  • Assist with enrollment efforts, open houses, and community outreach

Program Quality

  • Use ECERS, Creative Curriculum, and CLASS observations to support continuous improvement
  • Participate in professional development and training opportunities

Center Leadership & Administration (Limited Daily Time)

  • Support daily center operations and scheduling
  • Ensure compliance with NY State OCFS Day Care regulations
  • Maintain required student and program records
  • Support staff onboarding, training, and supervision
  • Coordinate classroom supplies and materials
  • Collaborate with HR, enrollment, and regional leadership teams

(Administrative responsibilities are completed in short daily blocks and do not replace primary classroom responsibilities.)

Requirements

Education & Experience (One of the following required):

  • Bachelor's degree (12+ credits in early childhood, child development, or related field) plus 1 year teaching and 1 year supervisory experience
  • NYS Children's Program Administrator Credential plus 1 year teaching and 1 year supervisory experience
  • Associate's degree in early childhood (or related field) with plan toward bachelor's or administrator credential plus 2 years teaching and 2 years supervisory experience
  • CDA or OCFS-recognized credential with plan of study plus 2 years teaching and 2 years supervisory experience

Additional Requirements

  • Medically cleared to work in a childcare setting; free of communicable diseases including TB
  • Strong leadership, communication, and organizational skills
  • Dependable, professional, and able to work collaboratively with staff and families
  • Physically able to lift up to 50 lbs. and actively engage with children

PART-TIME BENEFITS:

  • Employer-paid childcare for school-age children (ages 5-12) enrolled in our program on the days and during the hours you are working with us
  • Telehealth, vision, and dental coverage
