Implementation Considerations
• What are your specific goals for work-based learning?
• Who is your target population?
• Who are your partners? (Education and training providers, local industry associations, employers, other stakeholders?)
• If local employers are already on board, what are their needs and expectations from work-based learning? If not on board, what do you need to communicate to them for buy-in?
• What resources are available to you, both in terms of funding and capacity-building for design?
