This is the second webinar of a two-part session discussing the importance of the job coach in maximizing student independence, competence and confidence in employment.

Part One covered the basics, including tips for the job coach on how to help the student fit into the workplace; encourage and engage natural supports; and create a plan of what to teach based on a job analysis. The recording of Part One may be viewed/listened to on the Transition and Employment Projects website.

Part Two will expand upon the first session to include strategies for instruction, collecting data on performance, and planning long-term support on the job once the job coach fades from the workplace.

Presenter:

Ellen Condon, Transition and Employment Projects Director at the University of Montana Rural Institute on Disabilities
