Supporting people to be successful at their jobs is not as easy as it sounds. It requires many skills, including, excellent communication, maintaining relationships with multiple team members (including employers), knowledge about accommodations and assistive technology, and effectively assisting individuals with various disabilities to learn and master new tasks.

· the role of the job coach

· natural supports and social inclusion

· systematic instruction

· job maintenance and self-management techniques

Participants should attend both sessions to get the most out of this training series. Letters of completion will be provided to those who attend both training sessions.
