Abstract	Intermediaries that design and build work-based learning delivery systems believe that postsecondary credentials--certifications and degrees (both associate's and bachelor's)--are a requirement for most good jobs. Indeed, such credentials increase access to economic mobility and, ultimately, greater equity. When coupled with work-based learning experiences, postsecondary credentials become even more powerful. But many intermediaries have little experience working with higher education partners to make sure that students earn the credentials they need. This guide draws on Jobs for the Future's (JFF's) long experience and lessons learned supporting intermediaries and their community college partners to form productive and lasting relationships that benefit young people. This guide outlines the steps intermediaries can take to launch a successful partnership with a local community college. It covers preparing to form a new connection, identifying the right contacts, making your case, and centering your goal: to provide high school students with opportunities to earn college credits that will help them build their future careers.
