How Can College Students with a Disability Prepare for Today’s Job Market?
Today’s job market is different than it was just a few years ago for individuals with special needs. Diversity training, once a corporate essential, is waning. Affirmative action is all but dead.
That’s why Book 4 of this “Career-Readiness” series by Jim Hasse is a timely resource for you as a professional, a parent and a college student with a disability.
Book 4 offers a comprehensive blueprint for empowering parents and counselors who seek to prepare a college student with special needs for meaningful employment. It is based on National Career Development Guidelines (NCDG). In this book, you will discover:

Hasse says, “My disabilities, while they have made life tougher for me to live, have also, within certain contexts, become an aggregate advantage for me in gaining meaningful employment in integrated settings. My disability has given me an edge in developing my career. Career Book 4 shows what worked for me while I was in college.”
Let this unique and informative resource guide you on your journey, as you constructively mentor your college student along the road to career success.
