For more information about implementing work study in schools see the Work Study Guidelines for the Practical and Applied Arts included in the Practical and Applied Arts Handbook. Teachers need to use or design appropriate learning objectives for this module; for instance, to demonstrate ability to follow a "Training Plan". The training plan for the student should be designed to relate to the objectives of the course modules chosen in collaboration with the cooperating employer.

Note: the renewed/new Career and Work Exploration 10, 20, A30, B30 Curriculum Guide is being developed. Consult the Department of Labour for content about Labour Standards, Occupational Health and Safety, and WHMIS. If students have experienced a work study during grade 11 or 12 in other courses, add more depth to the next experience.
