Case Studies in Virtual Work-Based Learning

This roundtable takes previous conversations surrounding the need for virtual work-based learning experiences to the next level by featuring very specific examples of what our panelists are using to create virtual and blended job shadows, micro internships, mentorships with professionals, and internship experiences. It is more important than ever to ensure that our students have high quality WBL experiences by whatever means necessary as our economy changes radically coming out of COVID. Please join us as a panel of school leaders and industry experts share their case studies in this webinar.

Panelists discuss:

• The details of a specific example of virtual WBL they are using and ideas about how to develop a model template for each career cluster  / pathway.
• How do we transform our current WBL experiences into a virtual or blended environment?
• How can the virtual experience be sure to serve as a decision point that affirms or rejects the career path?
• How could workplace competencies be practiced and developed in a real context virtually?
• In what ways could individual professionals be called upon to help rather than exclusively relying on the businesses themselves?
