will slides be available

Hi everyone, this webinar is being recorded and the archive and presentation slides will be shared with all attendees

Outstanding!

Please feel free to type your questions and comments here.

FYI, Panelists are: Janet (Nebraska), Libby (Maine), Nathan (Vermont) & Angel (Oregon)

can you speak to having ‘dedicated employer contact staff’ vs staff that are responsible as both counselors/instructors AND employer outreach

PE = Progressive Employment

Please feel free to type your questions as they come up and we will have 15 minutes of Q&A at the end where we will address them

I'm wondering about client eligibility requirements for PE vs the requirements for other VR services. Is there a difference in eligibility? Also, what does the data say about the time frame to hiring (or VR exit) for the PE process?

For Libby: Have you worked with WIOA Youth partners using this model?

Can you describe how you handle competing models/ staff time for training and understanding? For example, are you all involved with Customized Employment and/or IPS models. Does it inhibit implementing another model alongside, or work well to have more options?

things progressive employment helped us put a framework

a few minutes before Q&A time, just FYI

Janet I think you have described Progressive Employment as a “tool in the toolbox” re: competing models question.

Hi Helga - We do work with the WIOA youth team and if they are co-enrolled they can have access to PE

Thank you!
