On-the-Job Training (OJT)
On-the-Job Training (OJT), often referred to as the cooperative method of instruction, provides an opportunity for students to gain meaningful paid or unpaid supervised work-based learning experiences in a business or industry setting. The OJT program/course is most often used to supplement classroom instruction in a specific Career and Technical Education program, in order to give students a chance to apply the knowledge and skills acquired in school in a job that correlates to their instructional program.
Students enrolled in an OJT program/course receive high school credit and the school may claim the appropriate FTE or workforce funding to support the instructional program/course. The length of the OJT program/course and the number of multiple credits a student may earn will differ depending on the area.
