Overview
The European Union of Supported Employment is established to facilitate the development of Supported Employment throughout Europe. Supported Employment assists people with significant disabilities (physical, intellectual, psychiatric, sensory and hidden) to access real employment opportunities, of their own choice, in an integrated setting with appropriate ongoing support to become economically and socially active in their own communities.
EUSE works to achieve this through the promotion of the Supported Employment model, the exchange of information and knowledge on good practice in Supported Employment and the development of model services. EUSE provides a platform for networking with other organisations and associations at European and worldwide level.
Following on from the success of the first EUSE Scholarship Programme in 2008-2009, EUSE is delighted to announce the “EUSE Scholarship Programme 2010/2011”. The Scholarship will provide an opportunity for three Employment Support Workers (i.e. Job Coaches, Employment Officers or those providing assistance to people with disabilities or from other disadvantaged groups to find employment) to participate in a study visit to another European State, of their choice. To coincide with the 10th EUSE Conference one of the Scholarship participants may be selected to present their scholarship report at the EUSE Conference in Copenhagen, Denmark (1,2 & 3 June 2011). This decision will be based on the participants Scholarship Report.
Aim of the scholarship is:
• To provide an opportunity for professional development and learning for Supported Employment practitioners through a study visit.
Objectives of the scholarship are:
• To explore best practice in Supported Employment in another European State
