What We Do
Want to learn how to get a job?
Networking, job interviews, build business connections and find skills you didn’t know you had?
We’ve got the tools built just for you!
Does the same old coaching model not work for you?
We agree – it needs a change. Now you can combine online learning with the face to face coaching needed for success. Your success. Your way.
OUR WHY
Your timeline. Your way.
Tired of succeeding but on someone else’s timeline? When they can fit you in? Now you can control how and when you learn and move towards progress as fast as you want or a slow as you need to.
Who are we and why does that matter?
Our team is made up of folks who either support people on the spectrum, have a loved one on the spectrum or just find the spectrum really freaking cool and want to be involved.
We’re building resources for the autism community, with the autism community.
There’s no point in thinking we’ve got a great idea for a community and then not asking that community if they think it’s great. Right? We’re working with the autism community to make sure the tools, resources and topics we’re providing are the right ones.
We’d love to work with you and find out what you’d like to learn about!
Tools
Is that the whole toolkit? No!
We’re a startup company who’s working with the autism community to make sure what we deliver is the right fit. That takes time. As new tools are released, you’ll find out!
What’s in the Toolkit?
E-Learning
Programs developed to address getting ready for a job, on the job issues and more.
ASD Job Coaches
We’re creating partnerships with coaches who have the skills and experience to work successfully with the ASD Community on progressing towards their goals.
Resumes
We’re developing multiple ways to get your skill set, personality and interests in front of the right employers.
Skill Testing
We’re finding the right tool to test your skills and add badges to your profile so employers know right away what you can do.
