Students on a CLE.

What are Coordinated Learning Experiences?
Coordinated Learning Experiences (CLEs) are community-based, real-world experiences, such as classroom speakers and visits from experts in the field, mentoring and job-shadowing experiences, and worksite and campus tours. For suggestions of CLEs to enrich your students’ learning, refer to the Classroom Resources section .

The Business/Education Advisory Council (BEAC) is an integral part of the Ford PAS program and is intended to provide a supportive link between the school program and local businesses, community organizations, and institutions of higher education. Refer to the BEAC Toolkit to find out how your BEAC may be able to help you organize a CLE.
