Work-Based Learning and CDOS

Registered or unregistered work-based learning experiences may be used to fulfill the work-based learning requirement for Option 1 for the CDOS Credential or graduation pathway. For experiences to count as hours toward Option 1, they must be supervised by appropriately certified school staff:
