Customized Employment:
Welcoming All to a Working Life
Keynote Speaker: Michael Callahan
Michael Callahan, a nationally renowned speaker of Marc Gold &
Associates and Employment for All, will discuss the emerging concept
of Customized Employment, a strategy useful for assisting people with
significant disabilities to become employed. Michael describes
Customized Employment as standing on the shoulders of Supported
Employment, but Customized Employment goes beyond to include any
individual with a complex life. Customized Employment individualizes
the employment relationship between employees and employers in ways
that meet the needs of both. Please join us as we welcome all to a
working life!
APSE-The Network on Employment is a national and state membership
