Jobs for the Future’s Toolkit Helps Colleges Implement Work-Based Learning
With case studies, videos, a report, and an online toolkit, national non-profit, Jobs for the Future (JFF), provides a model for implementing work-based learning programs for community colleges.
The toolkit, called Work-Based Learning in Action, tackles a key challenge facing many prospective employees: relevant work experience is often required for employment, but can be difficult to obtain prior to entering the workplace. Work-based learning, promoted by this toolkit, is one solution.
JFF has identified seven principles for effective work-based learning. Each of the case studies focuses on a successful program using one or more of these principles.
To access the toolkit, visit the JFF website at www.jff.org.
