Description
This project develops Take on Training by Attainment, an application (app) that provides comprehensive instruction to job coaches and direct service workers (DSWs) to increase the independence of individuals with disabilities, maximize their independence on the job site, achieve advancement, and promote sustained employment. The goal for Take on Training by Attainment is to research and develop a mobile app to provide DSWs, including job coaches, with on-demand instruction by way of short video vignettes to promote the maximum level of independence for people with disabilities at work. The Phase I objective is to produce a prototype version of Take on Training to demonstrate feasibility for full research and development. Outcomes for this project include a prototype app and evaluation of the app by job coaches and individuals with disabilities in supported employment. Measurable results are obtained through pre- and post-test measures of job coach skills for DSWs and self-determination and quality of life of individuals in supported employment.
