Work-based Learning Protocols
Powerful partnerships are key to effectively and efficiently transforming education. One of the most common pitfalls communities experience when developing those relationships, is short-changing the time needed to design and implement work-based learning experiences. Sometimes planning for work-based learning is limited or not done at all. It may feel like you’re saving time, but in the end it will require more time and resources. It may even result in the loss of a key partner relationship vital to your students’ success.
