  • Annual Report Scaling Work-Based Learning Increases Impact for All Intermediary Services Pave a Pathway to Success
    2019–20 ANNUAL REPORT SCALING WORK-BASED LEARNING INCREASES IMPACT FOR ALL INTERMEDIARY SERVICES PAVE A PATHWAY TO SUCCESS years MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT 2019 was a year that GPSEd saw steady expansion of our work-based learning intermediary services throughout the Midwest and beyond. With new partnerships across more industries and additional services added across the work-based learning continuum, we were poised to support more students on their journey to proud and productive lives. With 2020’s global pandemic thrusting our communities into unchartered territories, we focused our efforts to support our partners by adapting our programs and learning, so that we could continue developing our students into the next generation workforce. I am so proud of the commitment we made to help prevent a widening of the skills gap that remains critical to our economic recovery. It put the joy back into 2020 having it be GPSEd’s 20th Anniversary and provided us with more motivation to make 2021 our biggest year yet! Despite the challenges that faced both schools and businesses, as well as the vulnerable population of students we serve in our WI-based Manufacturing Youth Apprenticeship Program, we stayed the course and proudly held a virtual graduation. This ceremonious occasion sent 99 more students into the next chapter of their lives with a high school diploma, as well as credentials and industry certifications that put them on a pathway to prosperity. Work also continued on the development of new partnerships that included a virtual academy in Oregon and a high school district in DuPage County, Illinois in which we are working to expand work-based learning experiences to its educational offerings.
