What is

The program is designed as a hands-on learning tool that links academics to the “real-world” work environment where students can create and accomplish their own measurable learning outcomes that are new &/or expanded responsibilities.
The class also empowers students to become better employees, work on new projects, add to their resume, & enhance their job skills.
