Seniors Devin Joshi and Marcos Rodriguez will graduate this May with more than classroom achievements—they’re leaving with hands-on experience gained through the school’s Work-Based Learning Program as interns at Blue & Co.
Work-Based Learning
A work-based learning (WBL) experience connects a student with a local business who assigns meaningful and authentic career-related experiences. The school, student, and workplace mentor create a training plan to guide the student’s WBL experience. Through this experience, a student will develop specific career-related skills, as well as a variety of employability skills, necessary for success in today’s workforce.
To be eligible for a work-based learning experience, students must be enrolled in the capstone course of a career pathway. Carmel High School currently offers 35 career pathways. Each pathway offers a four-course sequence featuring a principles course, two advanced courses, and a culminating capstone course.
