Job Coaching For Career Exploration In Community SettingsTo provide the most successful transition from school to employment, it is essential for schools utilizing Community-Based Instruction (CBI) for career exploration to have well trained and prepared staff. This training will describe the roles and responsibilities of school-based staff, or job coaches, who provide on-the-job support to students participating in work-based learning experiences in community settings. Participants will also learn about disability history, the evolution away from segregated to integrated employment settings, person-centered approaches, evidence-based strategies including the application of direct and systematic instruction used at job sites, and collection and use of data for informed decision making.
Note: This two-day training provides a total of 8 hours of professional development. Completion of day one is required to attend day two.
This training is ONLY open to New Jersey school staff. When performing the role of job coaching, school-based job coaches must be supervised by a certified teacher who has completed the required courses to coordinate Work-Based Learning (formerly SLE). For more information about work-based learning coordination, please visit the New Jersey Safe Schools Program
Certificates: Certificates of Attendance with training title and duration will be provided.
Continuing Education Credit: NJDOE Professional Development Hours.
