SUMMARY:From Compliance to Program Accessibility: Best Practices for American Job Centers
DESCRIPTION:In the 8 years since the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) was passed into law\, the American economy has profoundly changed. Major structural changes among industries\, companies\, and contractors have accelerated thanks to the COVID-19 pandemic and new economic policies from the Biden Administration. Throughout these tumultuous years\, American Job Centers (AJCs) / America’s Job Centers of California (AJCCs) have been crucial for the delivery of workforce services to thousands of workers. As the labor force participation rate for workers with disabilities rapidly increases to historical highs\, jobseekers with disabilities need supports and services that will meet their needs and help them earn an income. However\, the working professionals at AJCs/AJCCs may not have received any formal training on disability etiquette\, accessibility\, assistive technology\, or best practices. \nThis webinar will offer a high-level overview of proven practices and lessons learned for serving jobseekers with disabilities through the workforce development system. Learn from a subject matter expert who has collected simple\, practical\, and cost-effective solutions to help advance opportunities for jobseekers with disabilities. \nhttps://www.respectability.org/2022/03/best-practices-for-american-job-centers-webinar/ \nThis webinar is free and will include ASL/live captioning.
