What is Work Based Learning?

Simply put, Work Based Learning, or WBL, is where students from Waverly High School are strategically placed in business settings to learn skills that are crucial for success in the work place. 

We have adopted the following definition of WBL:
- Provide students with real-life work experiences where they can apply academic and technical skills and develop their employability.

-WBL programs are targeted to bridge the gap between the learning and the doing

Goal 1: To provide on-the-job work experience
in order to create strong, successful
employees.

Goal 2: Engage students in real life work
experience that relates to classroom
learning. Let's get them off of Frederick Street and onto Main Street. 

Goal 3: Help students develop positive work
habits, attitudes and interpersonal
skills through realistic learning
settings and establishment of soft
skills.

Goal 4: Help students develop future career
goals by helping establish career likes
and dislikes.

Goal 5: Improve workforce stability by
linking students and employers that
would encourage them to remain in
the Greater Valley!

How can a student get involved in Work Based Learning?

The work based learning program leads to the CDOS (Career Development Occupational Standards) Credential, which is an add-on to the Regents Diploma. Additionally, it can be used as an exit credential for those students who are not pursuing a Regents Diploma. 

In order to gain this credential, students must:
- Obtain 216 Internship Hours with a minimum of a satisfactory score in all evaluations
- Complete the "Professionalism in the Workforce" class
- Complete a Career Plan
- Complete all paperwork as required
