Cooperative Work Experience/Internship – Frequently Asked Questions

What is Cooperative Work Experience?

Cooperative Work Experience (CWE) courses at Allan Hancock College provide on-the-job learning

related to a student’s educational or occupations goals, and are offered by numerous disciplines.

The purpose of CWE is to help students transition from school to work by providing hands-on

learning experiences. There are two different types of CWE (149 & 302).

What are the differences between the two work experience courses?

CWE 302 – General Work Experience, is appropriate for supervised employment extending

classroom-based learning to an on-the-job learning environment

not directly related to

student’s

major.

Maximum of 6 units per semester.

CWE 149 – Occupational Work Experience, is appropriate for supervised employment, extending

classroom-based learning to an on-the-job learning environment

relating to the student’s career

and educational goals.

Maximum of 8 units per semester.

Both CWE 302 and 149 work experiences improve the student’s basic work skills and professional

competencies by creating career awareness, improving work habits and fostering positive workplace

attitudes.

Can a student repeat Work Experience?

Yes, students can take the work experience “class” more than once. Eligibility requirements remain

the same; however, the objectives must be different from one term to the next and represent new

learning or expanded responsibilities. Students may take a combination of work experience classes,

however they may not exceed 16 CWE units total (combined 149 & 302).

Are the units transferable?

It depends. The California State University system does accept up to 8 units of Cooperative Work

Experience credit as elective units. Currently, the UC system does not accept the transfer of Work

Experience units. Private universities and colleges may be contacted individually for their own

policy. Students should consult with an academic counselor for potential unit limitations.

How does

CWE help students?

 An internship provides students an opportunity to make informed decisions about their

career and enables them to change career goals prior to graduation if the present career

track doesn’t measure up to their expectations.

 In addition to the experience an internship provides students and opportunity to gain

valuable business contacts and references.

 Students who complete an internship often do significantly better in both salary and

opportunities after graduation.

Are internships full or part-time?

Internships may be full or part-time. They will be determined specifically by the employer. Typically

internships are part-time.

How long do internships last?

The duration of an internship is determined by the employer, but will generally last the entire duration of the

semester/term.

Are internships paid or unpaid?

Internships can be either paid or unpaid.

How many units are CWE classes

worth?

Students may enroll in 1 - 6 units of (CWE-302). Unit enrollment directly correlates to the amount of hours

worked in the Semester/term and if the internship is paid or unpaid. See table below.

MINIMUM HOURS REQUIRED

Units Enrolled

Unpaid Internships

Paid Internships

60 hours

75 hours

120 hours

150 hours

180 hours

240 hours

225 hours

300 hours

How do students enroll?

 Students must secure an internship or job opportunity with an employer independently,

through individual academic departments and programs and/or the Career Center.

 Students can officially enroll prior to attending the mandatory orientation.

 Attend the mandatory orientation for each semester/term (click on the CRN for specific times

and locations).

Do students attend classes?

Yes. There is

one

mandatory class (orientation) meeting the week prior or first week of the

semester/term.

Does CWE find a

job or internship for me?

No. CWE provides a resource for students to apply to internships and receive credit for either a job

or internship. To be eligible to enroll in CWE, students will need to search and apply for a job or

internship.

What is

required of

my employer?

Employers will be required and must be willing to do the following:

 Meet with a CWE Instructor

 Sign off and approve the student’s workplace learning

objectives

 Sign time sheet

 Complete a mid and end-of-term job performance evaluation

GRADES

General Policies

 The Work Experience is a letter-graded course.

 Points are earned for all requirements of the program.

 The Work Experience Instructor assigns the final grade.

Point Breakdown

Grade requirements will be set by each department/Work Experience Instructor who will assign the

final grade. Generally, items such as the completion of the Objectives Worksheet, the evaluation of

the success in completing each objective, the written report, submission of time sheets, and return

of the Program Evaluation are included.

Any missing item could result in an “F” Grade.

It is

the responsibility of the student to “DROP” this class if not able to complete.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

What are learning objectives?

Learning objectives are goals to be accomplished within the Work Experience Term. Prior to

beginning the Work Experience, students must attend an orientation where they learn how to

plan and design the objectives that will be established by the student, employer/supervisor, and

Work Experience Instructor.

Objectives are very specific, measurable, have defined goals and a completion date. They

include the following elements: the achievement or skill to be learned, how it will be measured,

the manner in which it will be accomplished, and when it will be completed.

A large part of the grade depends on the achievement of the objectives. Student input is

important and the following are guidelines to help in establishing objectives:

1. Make sure each objective is achievable within the time frame of the Work Experience.

Credit is awarded on the basis of assignment completed and the required number of hours worked. The grade you

earn will be a direct reflection of the quality of assignments and amount of effort you put forth. The point scale

identifies the max points that can be received for each required assignment, however, any missing assignment may

result in an “F” grade. All assignments including signatures are mandatory!

2. Make sure each objective is specific enough to be evaluated.

3. Objectives must involve new learning and/or expanded responsibilities, beyond those

experienced in previous employment or Work Experiences.

4. Make sure the objectives work by designing them to particular needs.

Quality of the objectives

Learning objectives are the most important component of a quality Work Experience. Clear,

challenging objectives will help students grown and perform well on the job and in the

classroom. Students in the Work Experience program do not simply earn units for working;

these units reflect specific learning based on measurable objectives. The learning objectives

are, in effect, a written agreement between the student, the employer, and Allan Hancock

College.

New objectives each term

New and/or expanded learning objectives must be identified each term. Students can draft their

objectives with the assistance of their employment supervisor and submit them to the Work

Experience Instructor for final approval. The learning objectives must then be signed by all three

parties and are to be turned in to the CWE Instructor.

How many objectives?

Three objectives are required of all students. Based on the purpose of the objectives, the degree of

difficulty, and the student’s ambitions, additional objectives may be set. Students are expected to

accomplish as much in their placement as they would in a regular classroom.

Guidelines for writing your objectives

Challenging yet achievable learning objectives are the single most important component of quality

Work Experience. It is likely that fifty percent (50%) of your grade is dependent on establishing and

reaching them. Objectives are measurable goals that you set for yourself (in conjunction with your

supervisor) to be accomplished by you through your Work Experience. They require that you learn

or make use of new habits, skills, or information above and beyond your current knowledge.

Each objective must be directly related to your career major and include these four parts: CWE 149

requires work related to major. CWE 302 is general in nature. The objectives will be designed by

your with assistance from your employer, and approved by your Work Experience Instructor.

Consider the following guidelines for your objectives:

1. The objectives must involve new learning, new growth, new responsibilities, or improvement on

the job.

2. Make sure the objectives are specific enough to achieve within the Work Experience term and

can be objectively evaluated.

3. The objectives you set should benefit your employer too.

4. Use an action verb to begin each objective that will describe what you intend to do. Avoid

vague or broad terms such as believe, understand, appreciate, get, etc.

There are four distinct “rules” for developing meaningful objectives, and they are as follows.

1. They must be very specific. What is it that you want to learn, achieve, or accomplish in your

Work Experience? For example:

 Research law cases and write briefs.

 Operative a camera in a studio and on location productions.



2. Determine what you method of accomplishment will be. How will you go about learning

the information you specified above? For example:

 Practical hands-on application

 Instruction/training from my supervisor and/or co-workers

 Observation

 Discussing techniques with other employees

 Reading/studying manuals and tutorials

 Videos

 Workshops

 Using computer programs

 Reviewing files

 Etc.

3. The results must be measurable. How will you and your supervisor be able to determine to

what degree each objective has been completed? For example:

 Tests

 Work Experience Instructor critique/evaluation

 Videotape critique

 Submit monthly reports and case files

 Etc.

4. Specify a completion date. What is the deadline for each objective? Write a specific date

that is prior to the end of the semester.

Types of learning objectives

If you are new to Cooperative Work Experience and just entering your placement, you should have

an abundance of opportunities to learn information above and beyond the knowledge that you

already have. Think about what it is you want to learn while working. You might want to ask your

supervisor or other employees what suggestions they have; things they have found important to

know, or wished they had known early on in their career. This type of objective is most frequently

used in Cooperative Work Experience. Remember, you want to increase your breadth of knowledge.

Turning a current part time job into an internship position affords you the opportunity to use several

types of learning objectives:

 New assignments. If you use your current part-time job as Work Experience, you will need to

have new learning experiences that can be stated in objective form. To assist you in writing

your new objectives you might consider the requirements of the job that is currently a step

above yours and what you need to learn in order to be promoted.

 Routine duties. Think of new and creative ways you can improve the results of your daily job

duties or new aspects for improving efficiency.

 Problem solving. Look at a problem you have run into on the job, dissect it and think of

possible solutions and/or improvements. Can you spot a potential problem in the making? If

you were in charge, what suggestions could you make to the person doing your job?

 Personal improvement. How did your interactions at work develop a personal habits or social

skills that allowed you to become a more coveted employee? How could you improve your

communication with co-workers that would result in increased knowledge, new ideas, more

production, better cooperation, smoother workflow, etc?

Sample Objectives

General Work Experience – CWE 302 – Samples

Examples of Basic Learning Objectives:

Please note that the objectives include both WHAT the learning objectives are and HOW (actions

and activities) you will achieve those objectives. Remember that in order for a learning objectives to

be meaningful it must be measurable. When you are crafting your learning objectives try to

determine how they might be measured.

1. Acquire and develop basic employment responsibilities by being to work on time, returning from

breaks and lunch on time and promptly starting work.

2. Development of an understanding for the basic job tasks and responsibilities by asking

appropriate questions, receiving training and instruction in an open-minded way. Accepting

responsibility for both quality and unsatisfactory performance.

3. Demonstrates the ability to get along well with others in the work place by being courteous and

considerate of other employees and working to reduce tension under stressful conditions.

4. Completes job tasks effectively and with a degree of quality by proper use of equipment (such

as a cash register, computer terminal, and tools, etc.) in a skilled manner.

5. Maintains (or works toward) an acceptable volume of production by working quickly and

efficiently with given production standards. (This is usually measured in sales volume or

production per hour, etc.)

6. Demonstrates initiative commitment by using cross-selling techniques or suggestions which

would lead to increases in sales volume or reduction in costs.

Employers generally have specific jobs which require certain training and skills which must be

developed and reinforced. In order to develop these skills and talents there will be generally stated

objectives in the job description.

Please feel free to use the objectives which are designed for a

particular job.

The above examples are meant to be an aid for those employers or supervisors who work most

directly with the student employee and may not have developed specific learning objectives for the

position. The above examples can also be modified to a specific position or job with some minor

changes.

Vocational Work Experience – CWE 149 – Samples

The following examples are major specific and may or may not be appropriate for you, depending

on your current level of education and employment duties.

Program Major: Photography

Properly photograph evidence at a crime scene for court cases. I will read and use the

procedures from department manuals and receive on site instruction from my supervisor.

The procedures will be learned by the end of the semester and at least two photographs will

have been accepted in court as evidence.

Program Major: Marketing (Sales)

Increase my personal sales by 10% over last year’s total. I will do this by developing a

written plan to include sales suggestions, producing a better sales presentation, and learning

more about the products sold.

Sales will be measured by comparing last year’s figures covering the same dates with the

semester. The objective will be completed by May 16, 20XX.

Program Major: Film & Video

Demonstrate the ability to operate a camera in a studio and on location productions. This

will be accomplished by training from camera operators, observation, and practical work. My

supervisor will evaluate my work by having me explain the operation of the camera and

viewing a production I filmed. My supervisor will evaluate my ability by May 16, 20XX.

Attendance & Time Sheet

You may begin to accumulate hours once you have completed the CWE Orientation

process – either in person or online via the CWE Website. It is the student’

responsibility to record their hours worked. One a daily basis, CWE students are to log

their work hours. At the end of each term, it is the CWE student’s responsibility to

finalize the time sheet and have it confirmed by his/her supervisor. Once signed by the

student/employee and supervisor, the time sheet must be turned in to the Work

Experience Instructor before the due date (see the CWE Website or Course Syllabus for

individual term due dates). The time sheet, as well as, other required CWE forms can

be found on the CWE Website or obtained by the CWE Instructor.

Student Report

Prior to the end of the semester, students are required to write a student report (CWE 302, 2-4

pages), (CWE 149, 4-6 pages) that is a reflection of what they have learned through their Work

Experience. All reports must be typed and double-spaced using Times New Roman 12pt. font, 1”

margins, and the title page should have their name, the employer and CWE Instructor name. The

grade is based on content grammar, spelling, punctuation, and presentation. The final report is to

be turned into the Work Experience Instructor – please see the semester calendar for submission

deadlines.

The Work Experience Instructor may indicate a specific topic, format or length s/he

wants addressed in the paper, otherwise you must choose one of the following five

topics and follow the instructions above:

1. Evaluate the use of objectives and the Work Experience: Some questions to consider

when writing your paper: How did you choose your learning objectives? What was it like to sit

down with your employer and discuss both your expectations? Did you find the objectives

helpful in directing your learning experience? What did you learn by completing the objectives

that you might not otherwise have learned? Did your supervisor follow through on his/her

commitment to teach you new information/skills? What did you learn from using your

objectives?

2. Evaluate the effectiveness of the Work Experience program: Some questions to

consider when writing your paper: Was the experience valuable to your future

goals/employment? If it was valuable, how? And if not – why not? How did the experience

influence your future career decision(s)? What were the benefits and what were the drawbacks

of the program?

3. Describe your ideal career: Some questions to consider when writing your paper: What is

important to you in your job? Do you have a “career-ladder” philosophy or do you see yourself

in one job, at one level? When do you think about your career future? What are you willing to

sacrifice in your life to “move up the ladder”? What would you NOT give up for your career?

How can Allan Hancock College help you attain your ideal career? What else will you need to

make it happen for yourself?

4. Suggestions that might improve efficiency & productivity at your jobsite: Some

things to consider when writing your paper: In your place of work – how is efficiency and

productivity identified? How do you know if you are meeting the efficiency and productivity

expectations at your place of work? Analyze your job site, then discuss the current levels of

efficiency/productivity, and describe how you would go about improving efficiency and

productivity (make sure you include changes in procedure and workflow). What could be

eliminated to improve efficiency? This is our opportunity to be creative – yet realistic.

5. Research the career opportunities available within your field of study/job: Some

things to consider when writing your paper: Identify the pros and cons concerning this field of

study or occupation. Include the necessary education, training, pay scales, occupational outlook

(employment possibilities), hours of work, and potential for promotion, drawbacks and benefits.

Which organizations hire people in this career? What is the demand for workers in this career

cluster? What can you do that might give you an “edge” for future employment in your field?

Please note – the Allan Hancock College Career and Technical Education Center (CTEC) has

information about many occupations and careers. The library is also a great resource for this

project.
