Draft a work-based learning program gap check from the federal WBL toolkit
Reads a district or state CTE team's written work-based learning (WBL) program description and drafts a gap sheet against the three components the U.S. Department of Education WBL Toolkit names for comprehensive programs (alignment of classroom and workplace learning; application of academic, technical and employability skills in a work setting; support from classroom or workplace mentors), plus the toolkit's sections on engaging employers, collecting data and scaling programs, with questions for the team.
Human in the loop: CTE director reviews the sheet with program staff and employer partners and decides any program change. Limits: The agent drafts questions, not a quality rating. Perkins V, ESSA and WIOA requirements, which the toolkit references, are confirmed by staff against the law and state guidance. No student placement, wage or participation records as inputs. Methodology 1.0: Hold.
