WDT 2.0 - Work-based Learning Policy :

SUMMARY/SCOPE
Edmonds College offers credited, work-based learning opportunities through individual courses - called internships, externships, work experiences, or practicums - in some educational programs. Credit is granted only for experiences that meet defined learning objectives, are completed while the student is in the program, and are part of the student’s educational goal.

DESCRIPTION
Work-based learning experiences are courses that have, in general, outcomes that are tied to an experience or set of experiences in a workplace. These classes are offered in programs where the student learning will be enhanced and deepened by the applied or “real world” experiences.
