The Business Case for Work-Based Learning
Here's a Handout to Get Started
Work-based learning works
When done well, work-based learning—like internships and apprenticeships—rapidly equip employees with the skills and experiences they need to do their jobs better. Moreover, work-based learning helps employers deliver concrete business benefits like:
- Improved productivity and quality
- Increased innovation
- Higher levels of employee engagement
- Increased workplace diversity and inclusion
JFF can help
JFF works with top companies like Lockheed Martin, John Deere, Nissan, Honda, and Best Buy to put work-based learning into action. We help companies assess their business drivers, evaluate talent needs, and design, pilot, and launch effective programs.

In addition, John Deere customers benefit from access to more highly skilled dealer personnel who are servicing or supporting their equipment.
