Elevate students complete hands-on training, OJT hours, clinical rotations, and apprenticeship placements at approved employer partner sites throughout Indiana. Every site operates under a documented agreement and meets our supervision and safety standards.
A training site is an approved employer location where Elevate students gain real-world experience under professional supervision. These are not simulated environments — students work alongside licensed professionals in active businesses.
Training sites are active businesses — barbershops, clinics, warehouses, construction firms, and tech companies — where students complete hands-on hours under licensed supervision.
Every site operates under a signed MOU, OJT contract, or clinical affiliation agreement. No informal arrangements. All documentation is audit-ready for WIOA, DOL, and state agencies.
On-site supervisors are licensed or credentialed in their field. They mentor students, sign off on competencies, and report progress back to Elevate.
Each site is reviewed for licensing, insurance, supervision capacity, and safety standards before students are placed. Sites are re-verified annually.
Online coursework delivered through Elevate's LMS. Covers theory, safety, regulations, and credential prep. Completed on the student's schedule.
Hands-on hours completed at an approved employer training site. Students work under a licensed supervisor and log hours toward their credential.
Supervisors verify and sign off on specific skills as students demonstrate them. Completed competencies are logged in Elevate's system and submitted to credentialing bodies.
Elevate partners with employers across multiple industries to provide hands-on training. All sites operate under documented agreements including MOUs, OJT contracts, and clinical affiliation agreements. Contact us to request the current list of active sites for a specific program.
