Successful completion of paid or unpaid work experiences (paid experiences are preferable under STWOA) should lead to a portable certificate. |
 | | WBL offers important information about jobs and careers that students cannot otherwise obtain, which can in turn affect their course of study and decision to pursue higher education (Grubb and Badway, 1995; Pauley et al., 1994; Pedraza, Pauley, and Kopp, 1997). |
