Brief Summary: Currently there are no national pre-requisites for training to become or to be hired as an ES Employment Specialist Staff providing employment services have a broad range of educational and training backgrounds Some individuals have a masters and have completed an ACRE approved course to earn a ACRE Association of Community Rehabilitation Educators Basic Employment Certificate in Employment Services while others may have a high school diploma and have not received any additional training The first phases of the study were important in identifying if the currently identified ACRE competencies are relevant and if the ACRE approved online training course does impact knowledge
Detailed Description: The final phase of the study aims to identify if the addition of technical assistance to the current course not only impacts knowledge of participants but also their self-reported engagement in skills that are outputs of their knowledge acquisition Additionally the third phase will link participation in the course and TA technical assistance to employment outcomes of individuals with IDDD individuals with intellectual andor developmental disability These additions address large gaps in the extant literature and research on employment specialists training and its impact on employment outcomes

While evidence-based practices in SE Supported Employment exist research indicates that these practices are not often put into practice Furthermore of the few studies that have explored ESEmployment Specialist training and its effectiveness very few have identified if training impacts the employment outcomes of individuals with disabilities Employment specialists and their skill directly impact the successful employment of individuals with IDDD Despite the introduction of SE into the field over four decades ago as well as legislative support employment outcomes of individuals with remain dismally low It is necessary to begin to gather evidence of the impact of training as well as feasibility and dosage in order to identify how to prepare employment service providers to better support individuals with disabilities to access employment
