This section introduces the first step of the JobAut pathway: a structured and person-centred interview designed to build trust, understand the autistic person’s strengths, aspirations, support needs and contextual factors, and assess the feasibility of a future job placement.
This section presents the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) as a practical framework to describe abilities, barriers and environmental factors in a clear and standardised way. Learners will understand how ICF can support functional profiling and more accurate job matching.
This section focuses on the coaching and empowerment pathway developed within JobAut. It introduces the main modules, tools and group-based activities used to support autistic adults in strengthening self-awareness, communication, motivation and personal action planning towards employment and independent life.
Conclusions and Integration within the JobAut Methodology
The Placement Feasibility Interview serves as the gateway to the entire methodology. It establishes the foundation for subsequent analysis and ensures that all further steps are grounded in a person-centred and evidence-based understanding.
