Work-Based Learning isn’t just a tool—it’s the next step in a platform that’s already helped employers, educators, and sponsors streamline workforce development across industries like healthcare, tech, renewable energy, aviation, and more.

Powered by GoSprout, our AI experience builds on years of success managing everything from registered apprenticeships to internships and pre-apprenticeship programs. We’ve seen the obstacles—manual compliance, disconnected tools, missed funding—and we’ve solved them.

Simplifying Compliance, Amplifying Impact

To qualify as work-based learning, programs must meet strict criteria—and too many schools and employers are left navigating them alone.

WBL experiences must:

Be firsthand—students must actively perform career tasks (not just observe)
Be aligned with instruction—experiences must connect to classroom learning and targeted skill development
Involve real industry partners—interactions must go beyond teachers to include professionals in the field

That’s where Work-Based Learning comes in. Backed by the GoSprout platform, we help you meet these requirements automatically—while also unlocking access to:

What Makes Great WBL Work

High-quality Work-Based Learning is more than just job experience—it’s structured, measurable, and aligned with real career growth.

At GoSprout, we’ve built our platform to support programs that meet today’s gold standard for work-based learning—defined by clear expectations, accountability, and alignment with state and federal guidelines.

Every strong WBL program should:

Be developmentally appropriate and skill-building
Include clear learning objectives tied to classroom instruction
Provide exposure to multiple aspects of an industry
Promote work-based reflection and career planning
Be inclusive, documented, and compliant with labor laws

Performance should be measurable, using methods like:

Work observations

Employer apprenticeship tools messaging icon for AI workforce development

Presentations or interviews

Apprenticeship compliance automation document search icon for workforce platform

Portfoliosor written assessments

Modern apprenticeship tools feedback icon on WorkBasedLearning.AI

Coaching-based feedback

By setting clear expectations and tracking outcomes, WBL becomes more transparent for administrators, more actionable for mentors, and more meaningful for learners.

What Counts as Work-Based Learning And What Doesn’t

Not every career-related activity qualifies as work-based learning. True WBL is structured, skill-building, and tied to outcomes—not just exposure.

What ISN’T Full Work-Based Learning

These are important starting points, but they don’t meet full WBL standards on their own:

Career Exploration

Career fairs
Interest inventories
Guest speakers
Mock interviews

Career Exposure

Job shadowing
Mentoring
Company tours
Informational interviews

These activities raise awareness and introduce industries, but they aren’t sustained or skill-building.

What IS Real Work-Based Learning

These experiences are deeper, longer-term, and tied to specific skill development and job performance:

Career Engagement

School-based enterprises
Guided service learning
Entrepreneurship or industry projects
Simulated/virtual WBL
Capstone projects

Career Experience

Internships
Apprenticeships
Pre-apprenticeships
OJT (On-the-Job Training)
Practicums
Cooperative learning

These experiences build real skills, support career growth, and lead to stronger outcomes for everyone involved.

Why it matters:

Programs focused only on exposure often struggle with low retention, unclear ROI, and compliance issues.

Work-Based Learning helps you design and scale programs that are structured, measurable, and built for long-term impact.

This is how we move from exploration to transformation.

Speaker presenting at Miami Dade College North Campus workforce development event

Behind every great platform is a powerful mission.

With over 20 years of experience in workforce development—including as a nonprofit leader, college professor, and related training educator for apprentices —Carlos Vazquez knew the system could work better for everyone.

As founder of Miami EdTech, Carlos saw firsthand how learners were missing out on debt-free pathways to great careers, how companies struggled with costly talent development, and how communities were losing opportunities to grow.

That’s why he created GoSprout and Work-Based Learning to transform how work-based learning is delivered, funded, and scaled.
