Multi-Occupations
-
The Multi-Occupations program is designed to provide students with disabilities the opportunity to explore career areas, develop appropriate work habits and attitudes and gain basic job skills through hands-on experience.
For students 16 to 21 years of age, Multi-Occupations offers challenges for students to discover their abilities and interests. Each student is given opportunities to work in various businesses and organizations in the community to become job-ready and prepare for the transition to the world of work. Students participating in the program are provided with a variety of hands-on tasks including shadowing, internships, and site visits. Clusters focus on employability, independent living, and social and safety skills needed to participate within the home and community.
