Vocational Education/Training

In order for peoples with disabilities to get a fulfilled life, it is important that they end up in a career that is of interest. Vocational education and training is imperative for these individuals to find the kind of work that they enjoy and prepare for that type of work in their lives after school.


Resource #1:

This is a website that is geared towards vocational and educational services for peoples with disabilities. It is a site that assists these people in finding the services they need for a career that can make them feel successful and independent.

Resource #2:

This website offers information on services for the high school aged student and adult aged person with a disability. It provides these students opportunities to explore careers of interest.

Resource #3:
http://www.dol.state.ga.us/vr_services.htm

This is a Georgia department website, but it was interesting to me to see the services that they offer through the government for vocational training. It provides services for people with disabilities to prepare for a workforce.

  1. I find this particular section very useful because so many individuals do not have a path or even the training for employment. I feel that as many resources as possible help to insure a productive life, especially once school is over.
