Here is an on-line course for new job coaches. It looks pretty good...
http://www.cde.tennessee.edu/se/begin.htm
This training provides an orientation to the field of supported
employment. It is intended primarily for self-study by newly-hired
supported employment consultants. There are five training modules,
best viewed with Internet Explorer:
* Module 1: Introduction
* Module 2: Strategies and Process
* Module 3: Supported Employment Language
* Module 4: Skill Building for Employment Consultants
* Bonus Module 5: Additional Resources
The full orientation may be completed in about 1 1/2 hours. The
modules are self-paced and may be started and stopped at any time.
For the newly hired supported employment consultant, self-checks
follow each module to ensure content mastery. A final quiz should be
handed in to a supervisor so he/she may be confident in the
consultant's awareness of supported employment values, attitudes,
definitions and process.
