Beginning with interest inventories, students identify what they like and what they don't. Figuring out what they don't like can help guide them in deciding what they do want to do. For students with disabilities who have limited exposure to different occupations this process is especially important. Your son or daughter may need to supplement interest inventories with increased exposure to a variety of jobs. You can assist by pointing out jobs that are visible within the community as well as exploring those behind the scenes. You may want to help your son/daughter explore more than one interest inventory. If so, speak to the Career Specialist or Counselor for recommendations or use a search engine, like http://www.google.com.
