The Office of Disability Employment Policy in the U.S.
Department of Labor has developed a new curriculum to help youth ages 14-21
prepare for the workforce. Modules with hands-on activities are provided in six
skill areas including communication, teamwork, problem solving, and
professionalism. Users may download the full publication or individual modules.
Guideposts for Employers Success
http://www.ncwd-youth.info/guideposts/employers
The Guideposts for Employer Success are organized with the
explicit purpose of helping workforce development policy makers and program
providers reduce identified barriers. There are two categories within the framework.
The first focuses on what system designers (state and local) need to do. The
second looks at what individual programs which include a wide array of
education and training institutions such as community rehabilitation centers,
secondary and postsecondary institutions, apprenticeship programs, and One-Stop
Centers need to do.
