This packet contains guidelines, a student competency checklist, and student evaluation sheet for use in a Wisconsin school-to-work state skill standards certificate program in construction. The guidelines provide a planning resource for implementing the program, which was created in partnership with unions, employers, the state Department of Public Instruction, and the Department of Workforce Development. The four sections of the guide are as follows: introduction and program overview, a description of the school-based learning components, a description of the work-based learning components, and sample forms and application materials for use in the program. The student competency checklist is a booklet designed to help students keep track of their progress by checking off each competency as they complete it. Competencies are organized into the following categories: core employability competencies; personal and interpersonal skills; thinking and information processing skills; systems and technology; specific carpentry competencies and construction industry knowledge; planning for construction; employing carpentry hand tools; employing construction power tools; materials and fasteners; residential foundations, framings, and roofs; interior walls and ceilings; inter and exterior doors, windows, and stairs; insulation application; residential floors and sills; and exterior walls and trim. The evaluation sheets provide rating scales and a record of student mastery and teacher comments for the competencies listed in the student competency checklist. (KC)
