Description

“Learn-and-Earn” describes a type of educational program that integrates career-oriented curriculum, relevant work experience, and financial assistance. In this summary, the authors provide a brief overview of the characteristics of various program models and the findings uncovered from analysis of existing programs. Among these findings: learn-and-earn programs function better when the organizations involved (e.g., postsecondary institutions, employers, and state policymakers) have functional partnerships with clearly agreed-upon goals.
