Looking at the documentation we currently have in place and identifying the gaps we will need to close.  I have learned that further documentation will need to be implamented in our WBL program. 

I viewed the role of the coach from a different lens.  I have been coaching athletes for many years and believe this was a paralle track.  What works for one will work for the other.  I was supprised on what differences can be applied to the creation of a job coach.  Excited to work through these modules to see the holes in coaching that I currently have.

The need to expand our current advisory board is going to be essential to create a work based learning model that fits more students then the ones within our CTE programs.  Advocating for all students with in our school setting will need to be a priority as we develop our programs

I have understood how much a system impacts effectiveness, and how communication and teamwork can lead to better outcomes. 

As we continue to develope of plan at the school district I work at it is imparative that we do it correctly for students success.  What my biggest take away is we have along way to go from where we are currently.  We are stating that we are doing this, but we are not doing a very good job.  Improvements need to happen and these beginning resourses and info will drive the directions for sure

This module reinforced for me how important it is to stay curious and avoid making assumptions about a learner’s behavior, communication style, or definition of career success. I plan to apply this by asking more open-ended questions, reflecting on my own biases, and adapting my approach to better understand each learner’s individual values, experiences, and goals.

I would like to have templates readily available for student referrals, re-engagement emails, and outreach support

I intend on putting up a resource board and be proactive with student engagement when conflicts arsie

I plan on utilizing color coding for risk assessment for placement outcomes. Also knowing who is priority will be helpful because as mentioned not everyone will get same attention depending on the needs.

Remembering that we all take part in getting the future graduate to completion. Having good communication with instructors and leadership to know what is going on with students before they drop. Documenting communication and make it simple and ALWAYS be in compliance not just last minute.
