Worcester Emerging Workforce Forum - 'Work Based Learning' & How It Can Benefit Your Business

A Technical Conversation with Worcester Public Schools
Join us for an informative session to better understand the details and differences between Co-operative Learning and Internships, compared to Apprenticeships and Pre-apprenticeships. Worcester Public Schools will also be presenting an 'Employer Guide to Schools', designed to enhance the employer/school partnership.
Learn about what programs Worcester Public Schools offer, how those programs are structured, and which schools offer which programs. Gain insight into the soft skills, hard skills and industry specific knowledge offered to prepare students for success.
Additionally, this is an opportunity to begin to plan how to expose motivated students to your business and build your bullpen of future stars.
These are students who are graduating with a passion for the industry in which you do business, so accessing this talent pool (short term or long term) is an investment in your business and your community.

Additionally, take the opportunity to tour Worcester Technical High School, meet and speak with key members of all Worcester Public High Schools, and see first-hand how Worcester Public Schools are preparing students for a future in your industry.
