Program Information

Mesa College Work Experience Program

Awarded 2008 Outstanding Internship and Work Experience College Program by CIWEA

Work Experience courses allow students to attend college classes and earn college credit for internships or on-the-job learning. No weekly classroom attendance or books is required. After the mandatory orientation, the student and the instructor maintain contact through phone and emails. The instructor will visit the student's work site during the semester. Students must have a job or internship prior to attending the mandatory orientation for these courses.

Work Experience courses apply toward the Associate Degree and transfer to the CSU and/or private colleges and universities. Some subject-specific occupational courses meet occupational certification requirements.
