Job development generally falls into four phases. These are getting to know job seekers, finding job openings, engaging employers to hire, and facilitating the transition to a job. This is often the description applied to the role of job developer. For most people, that’s where the knowledge stops. However, authentic employment professionals know that knowledge is their advantage and want more. Up until now, professional job development lacked a cohesive framework for service delivery. This is apparent in the variety of descriptions that service providers use to describe what they do. Many of which highlight the absence of real understanding.
This course goes further and delivers that knowledge to support real job development!
