This learning environment produces students who are more engaged in the classroom and are better prepared for the workforce.
The Simulated Workplace has enhanced the quality of instructional delivery of career education. This classroom environment gives students ownership of their performance. This impacts their educational experience by placing them in a mock workspace in their chosen field. The Simulated Workplace allows local business and industry experts to join onsite review teams that help schools meet workforce needs and expectations.
Students build leadership skills and confidence through hands-on learning projects and problem-solving. Being assigned career responsibilities, students are more prepared for future opportunities. Students are more than learners - they are team members thinking like employees, solving problems like innovators, and growing to become tomorrow's leaders.
