Synopsis:

A practical tool for all job developers, this workbook presents strategies based on real situations and includes example exercises throughout.

This flexible guide shows ways in which a support strategy can be developed in partnership with both employee and employer. Chapters are included on approaching and researching employers, establishing and improving the relationship between employee and employer, and on current debates in supported employment. The workbook also includes practical materials such as vocational profile forms, job analysis forms and support review charts.
