Waubonsee Works Paid Work Experiences (PWEs) are funded by the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act, in conjunction with the Kane County Regional Office of Reinvestment. All applicants must be certified Waubonsee Works participants to be considered for these positions.

Waubonsee Works PWEs are offered both on and off-campus and are meant to provide Waubonsee Works participants relevant industry work experiences that will increase their employability, improve their soft skills, and allow them to explore the career path they are most interested in.

Information Technology
Bookstore
