CERIC is pleased to be bringing career practitioners two new webinars on important and emerging topics in the field, offering convenient and cost-effective professional development.

Understanding What Our Clients Cannot Tell Us:  An Interactive Look into the World of Undiagnosed FASD, ADHD and Autism
Thursday, November 29, 2012, 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm ET

Presenter: Marilyn Leiterman, Certified FASD Trainer & Sensory Integration Expert

Clients with undiagnosed developmental disabilities are often both misunderstood and misrepresented in employment counselling due to the lack of knowledge of disabilities such as FASD, Autism, ADD and ADHD.  Sensory training can help to bridge this gap. Through hands-on interactive training, webinar participants will push themselves to their “sensory limits,” enabling those who deal with individuals with any brain-based disability to “understand” what it is like to live with sensory integration challenges on a daily basis. You will gain practical tips to assist your clients with sensory impairment through job coaching and employer education.

Remote Employment 3.0:  Legitimate Opportunities to Work from Home
Wednesday, December 5, 2012, 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm ET
Presenter: Anne-Marie Rolfe, Manager of Special Projects, Employment and Education Centre

Have you had clients ask you “Can you really work from home?”  and wondered how to answer?  Well, then this webinar is for you.  Remote employment is a real possibility and can open up new employment opportunities for a variety of clients. Those with disabilities find it liberating to be part of the workforce without the having to leave home. Stay-at-home parents are making a living and making a life. People in rural and remote areas are able to contribute and engage in a whole new labour market. Older workers enjoy the freedom of flexible hours and no commute. Our challenge can be educating our clients to separate the scams from the opportunities. This webinar will help you do just that. Plus, receive a free 20-page report of verified links to remote worker opportunities.
