Governor Andrew Cuomo has launched a weekly education program aimed at helping high schools students learn about state government.

The "Albany at Work" webcasts will take place during the legislative session.

Cuomo says it's an effort to keep his administration transparent.

The webcasts will be available online and feature a weekly review of what's going on in the state government, and what's next on the agenda.

They'll also include an "Ask Albany" segment when state officials answer questions submitted by students.

Over a dozen schools have signed up.
