Statewide Interagency Employment First Training
Our Challenge
Suasion was selected to help develop, promote and facilitate 15 statewide interagency trainings to increase knowledge of each agency’s role and spark collaboration between agencies that assist individuals with disabilities in finding meaningful, competitive and integrated employment in the state of Pennsylvania.
The trainings were a collaboration between Labor and Industry’s Office of Vocational Rehabilitation, DHS’s Office of Developmental Programs, and Education’s Bureau of Special Education (as well as the Office of Mental Health and Substance Abuse, added in 2017).
“Thanks so much. That was the best training I have ever been to.”
—Allentown Attendee
“I just wanted to send you an email saying how much I enjoyed yesterday’s seminar!! Loads of information and very interactive which keeps people involved more which facilitates discussion and the learning process.“
– Dubois Attendee
Our Strategy
Our approach to this project was to create an experience that would be valued and remembered by all participants, and ultimately change the way they think about how they work together to create employment opportunities for people with disabilities. We developed professional marketing tools to create enthusiasm and engage those who were invited to attend. Our communications tactics included a website, social media and electronic invitations.
Suasion successfully planned and coordinated 15 Experience the Employment Connection training sessions across the state. Our team was instrumental in developing the training curriculum that included impactful activities and exercises that fostered learning and cultivated collaboration. Suasion also facilitated all the training events and led leadership sessions that focused on strategic interagency planning.
