Webinar: Talent Matters: Leveraging Disability-Inclusive Outreach and Recruitment Strategies

June 30, 2016 1:00pm to 2:30pm

Presented by Employer Assistance and Resource Network on Disability Inclusion (EARN)

"Where can I find qualified applicants with disabilities?" It's a question asked often by companies looking to diversify and expand their talent pipeline, and the secret is adopting effective outreach and recruitment strategies designed to attract qualified individuals with disabilities. By developing relationships with a variety of recruitment sources, employers can tap the power of an untapped talent pool, and gain access to other supports to assist them in effectively integrating job candidates with disabilities into their workplace.

This webinar hosted by the Employer Assistance and Resource Network on Disability Inclusion (EARN) will address a number of strategies that can help employers build a disability-inclusive talent pipeline. In particular, the panel will focus on partnering with community-based organizations, and connecting with service providers that can identify and prepare individuals with disabilities for specific workforce needs.

Panelists:
•Brett Sheats (moderator), National Project Director, EARN
•Kathy West Evans, Director of Business Relations, Council of State Administrators of Vocational Rehabilitation (SAVR)
•Katherine McCary, President, C5 Consulting, LLC
•Debra Ruh, CEO, Ruh Global Communications

This webinar will be live captioned. In addition, a captioned recording of the webinar, as well as copies of the presentation slides, will be archived and available on AskEARN.org the week following the webinar.
