ADE doesn’t audit what you teach. They audit what you can prove.  ·  WBLForge is the only WBL platform that does both.

Four Tools, One Platform

Everything Your CTE Program Needs

Workplace documentation, career writing, and competition prep — with optional AI coaching you control. See every tool in action →

🏢

Workplace Simulator

Students complete realistic workplace scenarios that automatically generate compliance documentation for your WBL files — incident reports, work orders, SOAP notes. One student submission = one audit-ready evidence packet. No extra filing.

▶ See It Work Try it free →
✍️

Pathway Writing

Students produce industry-aligned writing samples in their own pathway — food-truck plans, weld inspections, SOAP notes — automatically aligned to industry credential standards. Real skill on real documents, not generic worksheets.

▶ See It Work Try it free →
📝

Career Writing Skills

Students get AI-guided feedback on every draft — professional emails, cover letters, procedures, meeting notes, goal plans. You stop grading every revision. They leave with job-ready writing skills employers actually expect.

▶ See It Work Try it free →
🏆

Competition & Club Center

Students get structured prompts and AI coaching for every CTSO event — FCCLA, FBLA, DECA, HOSA, FFA and more — with real rubrics and state-aware events. No teacher prep required. Plus chapter constitution, bylaws, minutes, and budgets.

Three Steps · Every Checkpoint

Compliance documentation
that runs itself.

Students complete real audit-ready workplace scenarios. WBLForge generates everything the state needs to see — automatically, the moment the student finishes.

01
ASSIGN
Students enter real workplace scenarios

27 CTE pathways. 117 audit-ready evidence generators. Students are placed in a real role — apprentice welder, CNA, aviation mechanic — and complete a professional writing task that workers in that industry actually perform.

Welding · Nursing · Aviation · Culinary · 23 more →
02
SCORE
Teachers score with a 5-criteria rubric

Student artifact, reflection responses, and rubric score are captured together in the platform — no paper, no spreadsheets, no separate filing. Everything stored per student, per checkpoint.

Rubric scored · Grade assigned · Artifact saved
03
EXPORT
One click — audit-ready packet generated

Complete WBL evidence packet: scenario description, student written artifact, evaluator rubric with scores, state indicator alignment, records retention notice. Print it. File it. Done.

generates this
automatically.

No forms to fill. No documentation to build. The record is created at the moment the student completes the simulation — ready to print, file, or export for audit.

The Compliance Question

What happens if the state asks for your WBL documentation tomorrow?

Every program says students are doing work-based learning. The question is whether the district can prove it — per student, per checkpoint, per year.

From CTE Educators

What teachers and directors say

"This would have saved me dozens of hours during our last program review. I spent two weeks pulling together documentation that WBLForge would have generated automatically. The ADE packet alone is worth the price."

Arizona CTE Teacher
Culinary Arts · 14 years experience

"The director dashboard is exactly what I've been asking vendors for. Seeing which campuses are audit-ready and which have missing documentation — that's the conversation I need to have with principals before ADE comes in, not after."

CTE Director · Arizona
Perkins V Coordinator · Multi-campus district

"I've been in CTE for 18 years. Every platform we've tried teaches content but none of them solve the documentation problem. WBLForge is the first tool I've seen that actually generates what an auditor needs to see — not just what looks good on a demo."

Built by a CTE Teacher

Not EdTech.
A tool by a teacher
who lived this problem.

CTE teachers are skeptical of EdTech — and for good reason. Most tools are built by people who have never stood in front of a welding class or managed a kitchen practicum.

WBLForge was built by someone who has — 16 years of CTE instruction and 14 years of teacher education. Every scenario, every rubric, and every compliance requirement was designed from real classroom experience and real program review pressure.

Arizona ADE Texas TEA Perkins V WAVE Program WBL Reporting
16 years teaching CTE — welding, agriculture, construction, health science
14 years teacher education — training CTE instructors how to document WBL correctly
Built around ADE Indicators 5d & 6a — the actual language auditors use
Designed from real program review requirements — not from a product spec
Every scenario written to industry credential standards — AWS, NREMT, ASCP, FAA, and more

You Control the AI

AI Coaching Is Optional — Your District Decides

Every tool works as a complete writing platform with AI on or off. Teachers and administrators set the policy from a Control Room — and in the licensed version, students cannot override it. Cautious about AI? Run the whole platform with it off. Ready for it? Turn it on per class or district-wide.
