| Occupational Work Experience (CWE) Education is an academic course in |
| which work sites serve as "off-campus classrooms." CWE extends classroom |
| based occupational learning to a work site in a field directly related to |
| the student's educational or occupational goal. Faculty, employers and |
| students work together to create a meaningful work-based educational |
| experience by developing and achieving specific learning objectives |
| related to their jobs. CWE can help students develop necessary work |
| habits, open doors to new employment experiences, or assist students in |
| acquiring skills and knowledge necessary for advancement in their current |
| employment. Specific units are determined based on the number of hours |
| a student works over the semester. |
