Get Ready! Get Set! Work!: Preparing Individuals with Special Needs to Thrive in the Workplace

Appropriate behavior in the workplace setting does not come naturally for individuals with special needs who struggle with social norms, particularly those on the autism spectrum. Consistent feedback, guided practice and awareness training can help these individuals learn the skills necessary to maintain employment and lead productive lives. Experienced educators Wanda Bronstad and Lynn Romenesko Palubicki have developed a resource guide that professionals, parents and mentors can use to assist individuals through a variety of challenges. The authors provide a roadmap to success with interactive units that cover topics ranging from activities of daily living to accepting feedback from authority figures.
