Work-Based Learning and Career Awareness Resources

Work-based learning (WBL) experiences provide real world workplace opportunities for students to study more complex subject matter and workplace skills. The goal of WBL is to prepare every student to make career choices through academic rigor and "hands-on" experience. This requires a systematic, comprehensive effort based on the SC Career and Technical Education state’s vision to cultivate the development of a skilled workforce and a responsive workforce system that meets the needs of business and industry learning to sustainable growth, economic prosperity, and global competitiveness. 

To learn more about the types of work-based learning experiences offered in the district, visit R1 CTE Work-Based Learning.
