Job Coaching Strategies is a concise, goal-oriented staff development program. The manual and DVD follow the chronology of a successful job placement—from getting to know your client to maintaining employer relations. The manual features real-life examples to illustrate techniques and strategies, and provides useful forms like functional assessments and work site analysis.
The DVD focuses on the successful supportive employment of Nick, a young man with multiple disabilities. Interviews with his parents, job coach and employer reinforce concepts discussed in the manual. It also features a step-by-step assessment interview, with an expert explanation of each topic by Janet Estervig.
