Presentations:


Students participating in the Alabama Occupational Diploma are required to demonstrate and have documentation of specific work skills that are necessary in order to be successful in competitive employment
.
 
  • The purpose of our program is to help prepare the students for the transition between school and work by teaching job readiness skills such as punctuality, appropriate dress/hygiene, following directions, and attending to task. These experiences are designed to enhance the career interest(s) of the student and prepare the student to meet his or her employment goal(s).
 
  • We focus on employability skills such as work habits, personal social skills, interviewing, attitudes toward work, and work tolerance.
 
  • The students will participate in Community-Based Work Training that will enable them to further develop appropriate work skills and habits.
 
  • During the sophomore/Junior years the students will work in the community under the direct supervision of an employee from a local business and are indirectly supervised by a transition teacher. While on the site, the student will perform work as assigned by the training site supervisor.  When the student completes the work experience, the training site supervisor and the transition teacher will complete a Community-Based Work Training Performance Evaluation. The student must receive minimally 80% to show mastery of training site.
