See Net Work Louisville for more information on this innovative approach.
The Net Work approach:
- Models a real workplace with hands-on activities and projects that engage learners;
- Teaches skills that can be applied in any industry or workplace, and in
life, such as problem solving, persistence, and team communications;
- Makes learning available any time, any place, and at any pace to address different learner needs and interest;
- Connects learners to a wide network of mentors, employers, and community resources that help learners develop new skills and enter a career pathway;
- Evaluate the results with online tools that track participant progress, get immediate feedback on effectiveness, individualize learning, and increase communication.
