The ADVANCE IET project has just published the third brief in its IET Strategies in Action series, which is intended to provide adult educators with a snapshot view of how some IET programs have implemented IET strategies and practices that serve diverse student populations in a variety of settings.
- Promising Practices for Collaborating with Industry and Workforce Development Partners in Integrated Education and Training Programs – This publication highlights how IET program providers can collaborate with industry and workforce development organizations to establish IET program design with learner-worker training or work-based learning opportunities.
Work-based learning and learner-worker training models can be implemented in combination with supporting strategies of strategic co-enrollment in WIOA Title I and Title II and the use of alternative assessments that align with learner workers’ career goals. The brief illustrates how IET program providers are implementing and integrating these program designs and supporting strategies. We hope this resource inspires other adult education programs to implement similar strategies that may help to better serve and support their adult learners toward achieving success.
