A Proven Work-Based Learning Solution—
Without the Logistics

Meeting Indiana’s new 75+ hour work-based learning requirement shouldn’t be a staffing or placement scramble.

Our fully simulated Work-Based Learning experience helps students earn graduation seals with no job site, no transportation, no additional staff.

Fall implementation is still possible. Districts using this model are ahead of the curve and unlocking new funding.

How It Works

A 150-hour, fully simulated internship where students gain real-world business experience while meeting Indiana’s Work-Based Learning (WBL) requirements. Students will participate in Real-World Business Rotations focused on:

• Marketing
• Sales
• Finance
• Entrepreneurship
• Human Services
• And More!

• Career-Ready Credentials: Students earn certificates and digital badges to showcase their skills to employers and colleges.

Advantages of 220’s Simulated Work-Based Learning

• CTE and HEA 1001 reimbursable: Schools can earn $500 per student by using 220’s WBL program under Indiana course 0530. Meets DOE WBL and graduation requirements.
• Transportation Challenges: Most students don’t drive, and the cost of transporting small groups doesn’t make sense.
• Limited Employer Availability: Few employers can take many students, and many schools lack enough local options.
• Scheduling Challenges: Block scheduling and inconsistent availability make it hard for employers to host WBL.
• Lack of Industry Variety: Students may be interested in industries that aren’t available locally, like tech or entrepreneurship.
• Behavioral and Readiness Challenges: Students dismissed from traditional WBL or not ready for it still need a way to meet diploma requirements.
