The culmination of public education for all youth with disabilities should be productive and meaningful careers – not just for some youth, or most youth, but all youth. This 3-part webinar series will highlight key strategies to establish interagency teams, clarify roles and responsibilities, improve engagement of families and employers, and facilitate individualized work experiences in the community. Special educators and administrators, Vocational Rehabilitation counselors, employment specialists, advocates and families are encouraged to attend to learn how to apply the tenants of seamless transition and promote successful futures for people with disabilities. Participants will receive access a set of tools essential to effective implementation of meaningful work experiences.\nPart 2: Facilitating Student Work-Experiences\nRegister for Part 1 ( https://transcen.yeslms.com/courses/description/1f10bfa4-6443-4e6f-405e-08da6f1da9e0 )\nRegister for Part 2 ( https://transcen.yeslms.com/courses/description/9f25e8ce-21a1-4960-195a-08da7adbc82d )\nRegister for Part 3\nThe “gold standard” of transition programs include a commitment to facilitating students exiting school already employed in an integrated job with prospects to remain employed in that job until they decide to move to another. Research shows that students who have meaningful work experiences in high school are likely to have better employment outcomes as adults. Therefore, facilitating work experiences should be a key focus of school transition programs. This session will highlight how to use principles of customized employment in a school setting (that likely has limited resources) to implement strengths-based assessment, build partnerships with families, and identify possible employers for the best possible job match.\nSpecific content includes:\n\nUsing the Positive Personal Profile to take a strengths-based approach to assessing skills, talents, and goals\nUsing a structured family interview to clarify intended outcomes and raise expectations that employment is possible\nLeveraging the interagency team to identify potential employers and roles in providing supports\nUsing Venn Diagrams to identify potential career exploration paths\nStrategies to elevate the student voice in the process\n\nPresenters:\nAnn Deschamps, Ed.D., Vice President at TransCen and Director of the Mid-Atlantic ADA Center.\nSean Roy, Chief Innovation and Training Officer at TransCen.\nContinuing Education Recognition:\nWhile this training is not pre-approved for Certified Employment Support Professional or Commission on Rehabilitation Counselor Certification continuing education credit hours, you may download a Certificate of Completion for CEU self-submission by passing the quiz available under the course outline.\nAdditional Information:\n\nTransCen provides captioning for all our webinars.\nAll webinars are recorded and available for later listening.\nCertificates of Completion are available for all sessions.\nSpecial pricing is available for groups of 10 or more.\nContact elearning@transcen.org ( mailto:elearning@transcen.org ) for more information or to register your group.
