Job Olympics

Job Olympics is a competition for high school students with disabilities. Job simulations are used to create realistic job situations. Students will train during the year to develop their job skills. The event provides an opportunity to introduce vocational-related topics into the classroom setting, through simulated work experiences. Students’ preparation for the Job Olympics showcases their aptitude, knowledge, interest and skills in key vocational areas necessary for employment. Students will compete against each other and show prospective employers that students with disabilities can be independent and dedicated to employment.
