Smarter Approach to Tracking Work-Based Learning: Tools, Processes, Best Practices
Tuesday June 16, 2026 11:10am - 12:00pm PDT
MSC White Pine - 1st Floor
This session will highlight practical tools and strategies for streamlining processes, reducing administrative workload, and improving overall efficiency in managing work-based learning programs. Participants will also hear directly from a school district about how they have strengthened their WBL programs through improved organization, better management practices, and easier access to placement data, while also receiving practical tips and advice from long-time WBL coordinators.


Work-based learning (WBL) is a critical component of Career and Technical Education (CTE). However, managing these student opportunities can be complex and may require significant staff time that could otherwise be dedicated to supporting students and program development. Effective systems for managing documentation, tracking hours, maintaining employer and placement records, coordinating site visits, and organizing apprenticeship information can help streamline these responsibilities. Access to clear reporting and data also plays an important role in demonstrating the impact WBL has on student outcomes and workforce development, helping educators share meaningful results with stakeholders.
