| Q:
| p. 18 - In the 3rd paragraph, it states that work based learning experiences are those that: are based upon labor market information. Could you clarify how that labor market information is to be used with a youth work experience? Does this mean that they are to be placed in work experiences that are considered in demand?
| | A:
| We believe that you need to take into consideration the Labor Market Information as you are placing a youth into a Worksite. Not every site will meet the definition of a job that is in demand, you can look at the goal of the work experience and the skills that they will gain on the worksite, including work readiness.
