The Importance of Vocational Training
Our responsibility to our students is to introduce career options and
provide experiences to develop appropriate social skills required for
successful employment. Necessary skills need to be taught hands-on
and/or in real-life settings, in addition to pre-requisite skills
instruction and rehearsal that takes place within the classroom
environment.
Local businesses and other organizations that invest in the employment,
recruitment and retention of people with disabilities provide
cost-effective workforce solutions that maximize performance and revenue
within the community. APTS actively seeks partnerships within the
business community to establish working relationships with organizations
that would engage our students in productive work while providing needed
services for their business.
Consultation-Based
Services
APTS' behavioral services works with organizations and/or families to provide effective training and consultative services based on the unique needs of individuals with
disabilities within an Applied Behavior Analysis framework. APTS offers
behavioral services in the form of crisis stabilization, Functional Behavioral
Assessment, Behavior Intervention Plan development, direct modeling and
training, data analysis and outcome measurement to family members/caregivers and
staff. Our consultants work with these individuals to create person-centered
programming that provides direct support throughout the implementation process.
We also conduct interactive workshops to work closely with organizations in creating custom-designed
