The Workshop
A large educational and vocational component in Verland's innovative training program are the Workshops, where a learning environment has been designed with the intent of preparing individuals with higher skills to enter the community workforce. While continually reinforcing the importance of making informed choices which will affect their lives, the Workshop Program engages its participants in practical activities that promote general social and daily skills including assembling, color matching, sorting, packaging, money and time skills.
Employing a credentialed teacher and aids, the Workshop is a vital component in Verland's programming to further self-sufficiency and meaningful participation in the community. Over the years, a significant number of individuals have acquired the necessary skills to become gainfully employed in community settings.
