This manual is designed as a reference guide for all team members (Division of Vocational Rehabilitation, SWAP and Education) who are encouraged to reference it whenever questions arise pertaining to the ongoing expectations of SWAP.  The manual should also be utilized to assist in training new partners and helping them become familiar with processes and procedures. Here all partners will find resources to help them learn about the expectations of the SWAP contract including various resources to effectively make the partnership a success. These materials are being made available to compliment and aid in your growth as a SWAP professional along with DVR’s external learning management system, Launchpad Odyssey. Â
