The ideal audience for this training would be service coordinators, social workers, employment specialists, direct care staff who support employment goals for individuals, and other staff who support employment goals for individuals.  This training is not only for Local Authority staff,  but equally important for private providers in your catchment area. we are working on an  online registration process for attendees. This is very valuable free training. Also, knowing that many LIDDA’s cover a large service area, if you have LIDDA or private provider staff  that would be unable to attend due being a long distance away, seek out one of the  other sessions.
