About the Summer Program:

Pre-Employment Transition Services (Pre-ETS) are activities that provide an early start at job exploration for students with disabilities ages 14-21 to assist with transitioning from school to postsecondary education or employment. ICBVI works with schools and other organizations across the state to coordinate and deliver Pre-ETS.

  • Job Exploration Counseling
  • Work-Based Learning Experiences
  • Counseling on Post-Secondary Education and Training
  • Workplace Readiness Training
  • Instruction in Self-Advocacy

A transition plan looks at the current academic progress of the student, interests, vocational goals and the needs of the student to either enter into some post secondary training as required based on their work goal or direct employment upon completion of high school.  At ICBVI we like to work closely with the students, parents and the school to identify and address needs as early possible when appropriate to create the most opportunities for a successful transition.

VIEW- Visually Impaired Experiencing Work:

VIEW is a 6 to 8 week work experience program in Boise. Students enrolled in the program live in supervised dorms and work in local competitive jobs during the week. On the job support is available to students. Students also benefit from the program through other activities arranged during the evenings and weekends.

The feedback from students and parents alike has been: “Wow, that is a great program!” Work skills development, confidence and self-esteem are typically big outcomes from the VIEW Program. See our Summer Programs Video and Testimonial below.

College Days:

College Days is a summer program for students who plan to attend some type of post secondary schooling. It focuses on the unique issues that a blind or visually impaired student may encounter when preparing for or transitioning to a trade school, two year college, or university.

Some areas that are addressed:

  • How to access the disability resource center at the school
  • Orientation and Mobility on campuses
  • Taking advantage of your assistive technology for the college environment
  • Accessing your books in a timely manner
  • Tips from other successful past and present blind or visually impaired students
  • Successful note taking

Work Readiness:

ICBVI provides Work Readiness training for students via the Putting Your Best Foot Forward Curriculum. Students cover topics such as identifying strengths and skills, developing a resume, looking for job vacancies, filling out strong applications, and presenting well at interview. This curriculum finishes with the student taking part in a work based learning experience.

Self-Advocacy and Soft Skills:

ICBVI also provides the opportunity for students to take part in a workshop on social skills, self-advocacy, and self-determination. Through interactive discussions, role plays, and field trips, they learn the practical skills necessary to successfully navigate the professional adult environment.
