PSWD 591 - Practicum: Workforce Development

The most powerful teaching tool is the application of knowledge. The practicum experience provides the opportunity to combine previous knowledge and skills with newly acquired knowledge and skills (from the prior two courses, PSWD 589: Introduction to Workforce Development Professional Competencies PSWD 590: Professional Assessment and Development). The student will incorporate this “combined” knowledge into his/her institution’s workforce development activities (i.e., increased job responsibilities, new program or partnership development, marketing strategies) while strengthening contributions to workforce development (at the system, institution and profession levels).

Credits: 3
