The Thomas County Career Related Education Work-based Learning Program is an educational option that prepares high school students for the world of work through a combination of academic and workplace learning.  It is based on the belief that our youth must be successful in a competitive, global economy.

Work-Based Learning is learning that results from work experience designed to increase the knowledge and skills of the learner. The work experience is supplemented with instruction and activities that apply, reinforce, refine, or extend the learning that occurs during work, so that learners develop attitudes, knowledge, skills, and habits that might not develop solely from work experiences. Students continue to take course work related to his/her career interest, but also being paid, on the-job training or a non-paid internship through a structured workplace learning program.
