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.
