Pupil instruction: work-based learning.

Existing law authorizes school districts that maintain high schools to establish work experience programs for the purpose of providing pupils with instruction in skills, attitudes, and understandings necessary for success in employment. This bill would require the governing board of a school district offering work-based learning opportunities to require a teacher of any of grades 9 to 12, inclusive, to verbally inform pupils about work experience education opportunities and other career partnerships in order to raise awareness of the career training resources that are available to those pupils.
