GET INVOLVED

Experiential Learning is the major focus of CCC programs that connect classroom curriculum to the 21st Century workplace. Battelle’s Technology Partnership Practice is working with CCC Pilot Sites and Connecticut businesses, and Education Connection to bridge the gap that often exist between classroom learning and the business environment.

Connecting CCC curriculum to experiential learning activities helps students and teachers understand the relationship between the content they learn in the classroom and the skills they will need to succeed in the 21st Century workplace. Business mentors are working along side students in the classroom and students are gaining first-hand experience through workplace internships. Teachers are also gaining a new appreciation and understanding of the business world as they visit the workplace and host business people in their classrooms as mentors and speakers. Contact Cynthia Kearney, CCC Outreach Coordinator at (203) 798-6750 or kearneyc@battelle.org to find out how you can get involved in this exciting CCC program.
