Our Flagship Program
The Workshop School
Workshop Learning partnered with the School District of Philadelphia to launch this project-based high school centered on teaching 9-12 grade students the skills they need to succeed in post-secondary life.
Students at the Workshop complete a wide range of hands-on projects, from design/build work to social activism. By eleventh grade they are designing internships and learning how to network, and by senior year they design their own projects based on their goals after graduation.
We are also home to an award-winning automotive program. Nearly all of our automotive graduates pass industry exams and secure paid employment in the field.
Our Latest Venture
Workshop U
Workshop U is a one-year program for emerging adults (18-24) who are figuring out their next steps in life. Over the course of the year, they develop a vision for the next stage of their life, build and demonstrate the skills they need to make that vision a reality, and then put it into practice through a paid internship. Along the way, students can earn up to 15 college credits and receive personalized leadership coaching. Upon graduation, Workshop U graduates either matriculate into a two- of for year college, enroll in a career specific job training program, or secure gainful employment in a field of their choosing.
