    Description
    Cooperative Work Experience Education (CWEE) develops skills and knowledge by integrating classroom study with planned, supervised work experience. It is based on the principle that well-educated individuals develop most effectively through an educational plan that incorporates work experience. Through these structured experiences, the students enrich their college studies, which enhances their total development. ITEC015X is supervised employment that is intended to assist students in acquiring desirable work habits, attitudes, and career awareness in the Industrial Technology field. Students may earn up to 8 units per semester for a maximum of 16 total units (for all work experience sections). Credits are awarded for paid or voluntary work. For every 75 hours of paid work completed within the semester, 1 unit of credit is awarded. For every 60 hours of volunteer work completed within the semester, 1 unit of credit is awarded.
