Effective Practices Webinar Series

The Effective Practices Webinar Series is designed as a platform for peer learning, and we selected the practices most replicable and adaptable for use among ENs, State VR agencies and Workforce development systems to feature. During the monthly forums, Employment Networks (EN) and State Vocational Rehabilitation (VR) agencies will share tested practices, partnerships, and business models with a track record of beneficiary employment results leading to self-sufficiency.

The Effective Practices Webinar Series took place January - July 2013. Materials from the past webinars are below:
