My name is Tim Riche’. I am excited to take over as president of CAWEE. This is my 25th year in education and I have taught everything from Video Production, English to being a Teacher on Special Assignment covering Work Experience. The last 15 years covering Work Experience for Madera Unified have been some of the most rewarding experiences I have had in education.
CAWEE is changing leadership currently and we are looking for people that would like to engage the future of work related education. If you share the vision and support our mission statement, please reach out to me on how you can become more involved. We will utilize you in whatever capacity you are willing to help.
At the heart of our mission statement and our vision, it is about protecting children. Our state is understanding the value of getting our students experience at greater levels in the workforce; it is more important than ever that we maintain levels of safety for our students. That people are reminded that rules are in place to protect the child and the business the student is going to.
We must do everything to make sure our students are safe, on campus or off!
This year we are working on doing several mini conferences throughout the state and hopefully getting to put on some larger events next year. We are also planning on updating our training and we hope to build an online place where people can ask questions. Supporting our educators is what we are about.
Thanks so much for your interest and I look forward to meeting you.

Career education programs.
The purpose of Cooperative Work Experience Education (CWEE or WOEX) is to help the student obtain on-the-job training that will make him/her a more efficient and valuable employee, while providing a practical education that supplements and enhances classroom theory.
CWEE is an instructional program in which students earn college credit for what they learn while working at paid jobs or as volunteers (even if self-employed). The work location is considered the job learning station or JLS.
Students, with the guidance of the job learning station supervisor and CWEE instructor, set their own Learning Objectives, which they fulfill during the semester. Learning Objectives define what a student will learn on the job during the semester. "Learning" may involve acquiring new knowledge or skills, or improving what a student already knows or can do.

Courses offered assist students in acquiring desirable work habits, attitudes, career awareness and other professional skills. Internship courses are a bridge between classroom learning and work with the internship directly related to the students’ major. Work Experience students apply employability skills known as “soft skills” in a work environment. Soft skills include teamwork, effective communication, time management, adaptability, and problem solving. The skills learned in Work Experience courses help students develop skills that support career and college success.
In order to be eligible for a work experience course, students must acquire a job, internship, or volunteer position (Community Engagement).
Students can find a open positions using the college's online job board: Handshake . For those who wish to take a Community Engagement course, feel free to also use our Volunteer Resource Guide .
High school students are able to take work experience courses. Enrollment at SRJC is handled by your high school and the SRJC Admissions & Records (A&R) Department .
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

Students' privacy is protected by the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) Guidelines. Instructors and support staff are not permitted to answer inquiries from a student's parents. It is your responsibility to pay attention to course deadlines (outlined in the course handbook) as well as Admissions & Records deadlines (outlined in the Academic Calendar). This is a graded course. The grade you get in this course will become part of your college record.
HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS - COURSE REQUIREMENTS
COURSE REQUIREMENTS
Excerpts are taken from the State of California Child Labor Laws:
High school graduates or minors who have been awarded a certificate of proficiency are exempt from the permit requirements. [EC 49101; LC 1286]
A minor enrolled in a Work Experience Education program must obtain a work permit, and his or her employer must possess a permit to employ. The minor must be at least 16 years of age to be enrolled in a Work Experience Education program, with certain exceptions as specified in the Education Code. [EC 49113]
Prior to permitting the minor to work, employers must possess a valid Permit to Employ and Work. The minor’s school issues the permit. In typical circumstances, after an employer agrees to hire a minor, the minor then obtains from his or her school a brief form with the title “Statement of Intent to Employ Minor and Request for Work Permit” (“Application”). [EC 49162] The application is completed by the minor and the employer and signed by the minor’s parent or guardian and the prospective supervisor. [EC 49163] After returning the completed and signed application to the school, school officials may then issue the Permit to Employ and Work. [EC 49110 – 49113 and 49130]
A minor attending a charter school* who wishes to work must obtain the standard Permit to Employ and Work, and the employer must possess such permit. Either the minor’s school or the authority that granted the school’s charter (normally the local school district) may issue the permit.
Sixteen and seventeen-year-olds enrolled in Work Experience or cooperative vocational education programs approved by the California Department of Education or those conducted by private schools may work on any day after 10 p.m., but not later than 12:30 a.m., provided that the parent or guardian and the Work Experience Education coordinator approve. Such employment may not be detrimental to the health, education, or welfare of the minor. Minors in these programs who work between the hours of 10 p.m. and 12:30 a.m. must be paid at least the adult minimum wage for those hours. [LC 1391.1] As the chart indicates, 16 and 17 year olds enrolled in a school approved Work Experience or cooperative vocational education program may work more than 4 hours on a school day, but never more than eight hours in any day. [EC 49116, LC 1391 and 1392].

The UCF Lockheed Martin College Work Experience Program (CWEP) allows undergraduate and graduate students to gain real-world work skills and abilities relevant to their academic and career goals. CWEP is a unique, year-round paid opportunity to have hands-on learning experiences.
Lockheed Martin is a global security and aerospace company that employs approximately 125,000 people worldwide. Lockheed Martin is principally engaged in the research, design, development, manufacture, integration, and sustainment of advanced technology systems and more.
Cwep is a 2 (consecutive) semester long program that is open to both undergraduates and graduate students. cweps are expected to work between 15-25 hours per week (monday-thursday). the cwep program is a paid opportunity for students in which pay is based off of class standing and the specific position assigned., *students will not earn academic credit for participating in the college work experience program as this is not a “for credit” program. students are not permitted to hold other paid positions on campus while participating in the program., what requirements are there for becoming a cwep, -be a u.s. person approved for work in the united states. u.s. person means: a u.s. citizen; or a permanent resident of the united states (“green card” holder); or an individual who is granted status as a “protected person” under 8 u.s.c. § 1324b(a)(3).
-commit to at least 2 consecutive semesters with the program (this criterion includes summers as consecutive semesters), -students must agree to background screening and urine drug screening. students must understand and agree that no person with a positive drug test will be assigned to work at lockheed martin facilities., -students must have completed one semester at ucf, sign me up how do i apply.
Frequently asked questions, how long does it take to hear for an interview, the time varies and there is no set answer since the time frame is largely dependent on supply and demand of the cweps needed., what are some tips to increase my chances of receiving an interview/offer.
Please contact us by email at [email protected], follow us on instagram: @ucf_cwep, like us on facebook: ucfcwep, hear from cwep’s themselves:.
Being part of the Lockheed Martin/UCF College Work Experience Program is an amazing opportunity for students to get a “foot in the door” and learn for themselves what working in industry really means. I’ve been able to work in the Advanced Rotary Wing and Ground System during my time as a CWEP and I wouldn’t trade it for any other opportunity. This experience doesn’t just foster the career skills you need to succeed in your future by giving you real tasks that actually mean something and have very real deadlines, it also develops personal skills that you won’t get from sitting in a lecture.
The CWEP program that UCF offers to its students is an incredible opportunity to gain real-world professional experience while still being able to expand our educational lenses both in and out of the classroom. Upon being selected by a team lead at Lockheed, I was brought onto the Engineering Process Group (EPG) team based in the Research and Development facility. I have also learned new tools and practices of the trade as I begin my journey as a software engineer, and I owe my beginnings to my amazing bosses and everyone in the CWEP program.
What is accreditation.
Accreditation is a system of evaluating a college or university to ensure it provides a quality education experience. There are two types of accreditation that colleges and universities frequently seek:
HLC is an institutional accreditor recognized by the U.S. Department of Education. Institutional accreditors evaluate the college or university as a whole, including its educational offerings, governance, operations and finances. When a college or university achieves institutional accreditation, that means it meets broad organizational quality standards. The accreditation applies to all of its programs, delivery methods and locations.
Programmatic accreditors (also known as specialized or professional accreditors) evaluate a specific program at an institution. This type of accreditation is pursued by the institution to (1) enhance a program’s quality and reputation and/or (2) meet specific licensing or hiring requirements set by state laws or employers.
It’s important to understand your college or university’s accreditation to be sure your education meets licensure, employer or other requirements. Learn what questions to ask about accreditation in HLC’s Student Guide.
HLC regularly evaluates our member institutions to ensure quality education for students. We conduct different types of reviews to evaluate certain aspects of an institution. In general, each review process includes the following steps.
Accreditation is based on a system of peer review . Our volunteer reviewers come from higher education institutions across the country. They evaluate an institution’s ability to meet HLC requirements. Peer reviewers make recommendations to HLC’s decision-making bodies based on their findings. The goal is to ensure that the institution is making continuous improvement that benefits students.
HLC’s decision-making bodies evaluate and take action on institutional reviews based on peer reviewer recommendations. You can learn more about HLC’s decision-making bodies and their work at Decision-Making Bodies and Processes .
HLC publishes actions taken by decision-making bodies and staff in our Directory of Institutions and at Accreditation Actions . For certain types of actions, HLC publishes Public Disclosure Notices that describe the action taken, its impact on students, and any next steps in the process, if applicable.
Student voices and participation are vital to the work we do — and students are encouraged to be involved in the accreditation process.
Students may be invited by their institution to attend and speak on issues during an on-site visit by HLC peer reviewers.
Prior to an institution’s comprehensive evaluation, a survey is sent to its entire student body so that students can share their opinions with the review team.
Students may submit comments about an institution at any time. The comments will be considered during the institution’s next comprehensive evaluation.
Students may file a complaint whenever there are concerns regarding an institution’s ongoing ability to meet HLC requirements.
About accreditation, how is accreditation earned.
Accreditors develop their own standards, or criteria for accreditation, and regularly conduct evaluations to assess whether those criteria are being met. Institutions and/or programs that meet an accreditor’s criteria may become “accredited” after a process of evaluation called “candidacy.”
Accreditation provides current and potential students assurance that they are receiving a quality education which will be recognized as such by potential employers or licensing boards as well as by other colleges or universities in case of student transfers or pursuit of a higher degree. Also, employer-paid tuition reimbursement programs often require that employee participants enroll in accredited institutions.
Additionally, the U.S. Department of Education recognizes accreditation as a marker to allow the institution to disperse federal (Title IV) student financial aid.
There are institutional accrediting agencies, such as HLC, that look at the college or university as a whole. And there are programmatic or specialized accrediting agencies that focus only on specific academic programs. Colleges and universities can have multiple accreditations. The U.S. Department of Education has a list of recognized accrediting agencies .
For many years, HLC was recognized as a regional accreditor by the U.S. Department of Education (USDE). However, in 2020 the USDE removed the distinction between regional and national accreditors, and now categorizes both types of agencies as institutional accreditors. The USDE also removed the limitation on regional accreditors’ geographic scope. As a result, HLC today is recognized as an institutional accreditor with authority to accredit colleges and universities throughout the United States.
HLC is a private not-for-profit company that is recognized by the U.S. Department of Education as an institutional accrediting agency. Higher education is overseen by the “Triad,” which is made up of an accrediting body such as HLC, a state’s higher education regulatory agency and the U.S. Department of Education, each with a distinct role in higher education oversight.
How do i know if my college or university is accredited.
The HLC website provides a search tool to find institutions accredited by HLC , including formerly accredited or closed colleges and universities. An additional institutional directory tool, especially if the accrediting agency is unknown, can be found on the U.S. Department of Education website .
HLC can provide an official letter to verify past or current accreditation for any HLC member college or university. Request a letter by contacting [email protected] .
No. During the candidacy stage, a college or university is not accredited. The institution has to demonstrate through its candidacy period that it meets HLC’s Criteria for Accreditation. Then the institution may become accredited.
HLC policy does not allow for retroactive accreditation of a college or university.
A course completed, or a degree earned, from an accredited institution remains accredited regardless of what happens to the institution at a later date. HLC’s Directory of Institutions includes all colleges and universities that have held status with HLC, so past accreditation dates can be verified.
HLC does not handle or keep any college transcripts. However, a college’s records, including transcripts, are generally kept and maintained after a closure. State agencies handling higher education matters are generally the best place to go when seeking information on closed schools and their records.
An institution’s accreditation will generally encompass all methods of delivery, though approval is sometimes needed before an institution can offer distance education.
Each institution determines its own policies and procedures for accepting transfer credits. HLC expects institutions to have clear policies on transfer of credit. Questions about the transferability of credits should be directed to the institution that the student is interested in attending.
A college or university that is on sanction is still accredited. In most cases, other colleges and universities will continue to accept the institution’s credits in transfer or for admission to a degree program while it is on a sanction. However, all colleges and universities define their own transfer and admission policies. So, students interested in pursuing another degree or transferring should contact the college or university they plan to attend so that they are knowledgeable about their admission and transfer policies.
The Higher Learning Commission does not rank or categorize schools. HLC evaluates an entire educational institution in terms of its mission and our Criteria for Accreditation. Besides assessing formal educational activities, it evaluates such things as governance and administration, financial stability, admissions and student services, institutional resources, student learning, institutional effectiveness, and relationships with internal and external constituencies.
Institutions set their own rules regarding faculty qualifications. However, HLC does have guidelines regarding faculty-teaching requirements . These guidelines apply to all faculty members whose primary responsibility is teaching, including part-time, adjunct, dual credit, temporary and/or non-tenure-track faculty.
HLC expects dual-credit courses to offer college-level work. While it is up to the institution itself to determine qualifications for dual-credit teaching, HLC provides guidelines regarding dual credit courses and programs .
Questions regarding licensure should be directed to the agency or state that would be granting a professional license.
HLC is not able to provide recommendations to students. A directory of HLC’s member institutions is available.
The U.S. Department of Education publishes a College Scorecard , which allows students to search and compare colleges.
