Making Vocational Assessment Meaningful: Practical Tools and Strategies
Vocational assessment doesn’t have to be overwhelming! Through hands-on activities and real-world examples, participants will explore how to build a comprehensive, student-centered vocational assessment strategy using a wide range of low- to no-cost tools. Learn about various interest and skill-based vocational assessments, strategies for selecting meaningful assessments for students with varying abilities, and most importantly, what to do with the data you collect. Designed for special educators and related service personnel, this interactive workshop will help you identify a clearer path for helping students ages 14-22 set and achieve their employment goals.
