Planning for Customized Outcomes / Relationship to the IPE
Webinar
Materials & Resources
Description:
Planning is essential for all services. However, there is skill and process that links the “best of the job seeker” to a customized employment outcome. This process is one that embraces the uniqueness of the job seeker, doesn’t rely on questions and answers of preferences from the job seeker, and formulates a definitive direction to seek employment. This process can be used with anyone seeking a job and with both approaches to employment, demand driven and customized employment. Customized employment has six basic steps in the process that guides toward employment; discovery of the job seeker, capturing discovery in a profile, customized employment planning, visual portfolio/resume development, job development representation, and worksite analysis, accommodation, and job support. This session will offer the participants an overview of the critical information for a customized plan.
The process begins with a meeting with the applicant, and family as appropriate, at the home of the applicant. These visits, along with other discovery activities, give the individual and their family information about their powerful roles in the process and allow the providers to compile the basic information that is necessary to plan for customized employment. Discovery focuses on “ecological validity” rather than predictions based on a sampling of tasks. Discovery strategies, information, and tools will be shared in the webinar.
This webinar provides an overview of Planning for Customized Outcomes as the third of four presentations on Customized Employment. The plan creates a blueprint for job development with tasks identified to offer an employer, businesses targeted, and possible connections of the job seeker to the targeted businesses.
