Note
Work-Based Learning in a secondary CTE Program of Study is a Federal Program Quality Indicator for Perkins V accountability. Oregon schools must ensure that Work-Based Learning experiences connected to a high school CTE Program of Study meet the criteria and types as outlined by the Oregon Department of Education (please visit the WBL webpage for resources and support).
The quick-start guide and lesson plan do not meet the requirements for Work-Based Learning experience in a secondary CTE Program of Study.
