Minimum Definition of Practice:
Work-based Learning represents credit-bearing experience that integrates knowledge and theory learned in the classroom with practical application and skills development in a professional setting. Internships, practicums, clinicals, co-ops and similar experiences, integrated with a class or related to a major field of study, give students the opportunity to gain valuable applied learning and make connections in professional fields students are considering for career paths, while giving employers the opportunity to guide and evaluate talent (NACE, 2011).

Process to Receive Seminar Scholarships
The community college campus liaison will coordinate the student application process. The campus liaison will recommend students for funding provided to the Tennessee Board of Regents. Once a campus liaison has coordinated and approved a student for participation in the Washington Center Seminar program, the liaison must send an email with the name of the student and summary of their interests and qualifications to Dr. Heidi Leming, Vice Chancellor of Student Success.
