Based on thirty years of applied research in organizational management, the Curriculum offers practical skills that supervisors can use everyday in a variety of settings serving people with a range of intellectual and related developmental disabilities. The Curriculum follows a competency and performance-based format, and includes eleven training modules on key topics in supervision such as assigning work duties, assessing work performance, and fostering work quality. It also includes trainer instructions and forms that supervisors use for completing "On-the-Job Competency Checks" for each of the skills from the modules This right-out-of-the-box Curriculum comes with trainer slides, a printed Curriculum, and a take-away Trainee Guide that summarizes key points in the Curriculum.
