SCI Vocational Evaluation

One of the first of a series of preliminary considerations in SCI vocational evaluation is who is conducting the assessment. The professional facilitator conducting the evaluation should be knowledgeable about assessment approaches and technology, know how to analyze jobs, understand job trends, and be aware of accommodations, workplace supports, and community resources related to employment. However, perhaps most importantly, the facilitator should understand the physical and psychosocial issues related to spinal cord injury, have a firm grasp on secondary complications and implications on vocational planning and ways to
ameliorate
these.
