After Work-Based Learning closed for 11 months due to the pandemic, opportunities on center have been offered since the end of February at Shriver Job Corps, Devens, MA. Eligible students get their time on WBL in various areas. Culinary students work in the cafeteria kitchen, OA and TCU students work in the Warehouse and at the front desk. Security students work for the Safety & Security Mgr. at the gate, patrolling the grounds as well as help out at the front desk. Computer Tech students and the Advanced Computer students are on Help Desk. Then, of course, the hard trades, Carpentry and Paint do so much all around campus. The hope is very soon, off center WBL will be approved one site at a time and reopen for the students to begin experiencing a taste of their trade in the workforce. Here are pictures showing our students on WBL in our on center opportunities.
