Plan to Placement
Providing essential tools for successful employment.
Registration open for 2024-2025 series
About
Plan to Placement integrates person-centered planning with job development, providing participants with essential tools for successful job placement. Through hands-on training, participants work directly with job seekers from their caseloads, receiving practical guidance throughout. The program utilizes PCP tools to identify strengths and interests, aligning job development efforts accordingly.
The first two sessions of the Plan to Placement Cohort Series will walk participants through a person-centered employment planning process alongside job seekers chosen by participants. The following four sessions will weave in job development techniques for the job seekers who are currently in job development services. During each session, we will reflect on how to apply the techniques to specific steps on behalf of each job seeker. The goal of this process is that job seekers will be close to placement by the end of the series. Participants time in this cohort can be considered part of the job development process.
