Oculus VR

WHAT IS IT?

Oculus VR is an app that is used with a Virtual Reality headset to simulate a realistic 3-D depiction of a different setting or environment than the person is currently experiencing. Someone using the VR headset to see this simulation can interact with the new environment in a realistic way, as if they are actually there.

EXAMPLES

1) This tool can be used to prepare clients for travel training, by allowing them to experience through VR the experience of getting a train for example and being in the train station etc.

2) This tool can also be used to simualte the environment of a particualr job role, for example a barista. A client can then virtually prepare a coffee or other hot drink and have an idea of what the real-life experience may be like.

"We use VR headsets in our organisation to support clients to travel to new places. For example, last summer we went to a conference in Belfast and were able to upload images of the venue to the VR headset so one of our employees, who is autistic, could "walk around" the venue before the event and feel comfortable that he knew where he was going on the day. This helped to rid him of anxietiearound travelling to new places and being unfamiliar of his surroundings. It was amazing!"

Melba

WHAT IS Melba?

It is a tool for creating capability profiles in a standardised way. Since it is well adapted to the work of people with disabilities it is very useful to use in this area of expertise. A capability profile is used to document a person’s capabilities. A requirements profile is used to describe the requirements of a job. The profile comparison between a capability profile and a requirements profile is used to assess the “fit” of a person and a job.

EXAMPLES

It’s best usecase is the creation of a very broad capability profile of your client. It combines the analog with the digital world to create a meaningful profile. You can use it to either create an ability profile to get the status quo of a trainee or to get an idea of what the ideal working place of your client should be and how to adapt a workplace to fit this. But you can also combine those findings to get a bigger picture.

"With Melba you get a great overview of our trainees skills."

Check U

WHAT IS IT?

Check U is a tool provided by the Federal Employment Agency that helps you find out which training or degree programme suits your interests and strengths. You go through four tests on skills, social competences, professional preferences and interests. Afterwards, professions are suggested that would fit based on the results.

EXAMPLES

1) Can be used for clarification if someone does not yet know which professional direction to take.

2) Can be used as inspiration for a new professional direction.

"The ease accessible and standardised tests are a good addition to „classic“ materials in vocational training at least for some clients. But it is only in german language, technically not barrier-free (can not be used with screenreader etc.) and the level of complexity (target group are trainees and students) for some questions can be a barrier, too."

Qualli.life Strength & Weakness

WHAT IS IT?

Within the CRM programme Quallilife there is the option to do a strengths/weaknesses analysis. It serves as a means for quantifiable assessment of a participant’s basic competencies. The system is customizable to the needs of the educational institution and their projects and should therefore be configured before first use. It can be helpful in the context of career orientation and profiling and is a relatively simple multiple choice system.

EXAMPLES

The analysis of strengths and weaknesses can be a part of profiling and can be carried out for example at the beginning of a project with participants. It can be used to identify and visualise basic competences, competences (areas) and indicators. This can be done again at a later stage, for example to check learning progress in qualification measures.

"We use the strengths and weaknesses analysis in our projects. These are adapted in each case. This makes the need for support visible. The findings from the strengths and weaknesses analysis are also very helpful for us when planning and searching for suitable internships."

Qualli.life Social Analysis

WHAT IS IT?

Within the CRM programme Quallilife there is the option to carry out a social analysis. A kind of questionnaire divided into categories can be compiled. The answers can be automatically transferred into reports. Professionals can ascertain the social starting position of the clients and their previous history.

EXAMPLES

With the social analysis, offer-related questionnaires can be created, such as an anamnesis questionnaire at the start of an accompaniment. But detailed profiling analyses are also conceivable.

"In some projects we use the social analysis at the beginning to get the most important data at a glance. In this way, for example, a substitute colleague can quickly get an overview of the social situation of the participant, but also changes/developments can be made visible. "

InA.Coach

WHAT IS InA.Coach?

The InA.Coach app is a digital task assistant that was developed together with job coaches and participants. In the app, work processes can be mapped in individual steps and each step can be backed up with aids such as written instructions, videos, checklists or timers. In this way, people can independently master even more complex tasks at their workplace with a contemporary tool.

EXAMPLES

1) This app can be used, for example, at the start of a new task as part of an in-company qualification. The job coach and participants can take photos of the individual work steps together. Together with their colleagues, they can record what is particularly important in these work steps and also record this as a text or voice message. This can create an individual work aid that can be expanded and changed over time.

2) If-then jumps are an important function. While analog paper-based aids must always present all contingencies and can lead to a flood of information, this digital task assistance allows steps to be specifically displayed only when they are actually needed and otherwise remain hidden. For example, if a check shows that there are still sufficient quantities of a particular product in the warehouse, the reordering step does not need to be displayed.

"The app has been kept simple to make it as intuitive as possible for participants and job coaches. At the same time, however, it has a sufficiently wide range of assistance for completing tasks so that participants with very different support needs can master individual work steps independently. Meanwhile, there is even a calendar function that can be used to assign specific tasks to specific days and times. This could also be used by company supervisors."

Didab

WHAT IS didab?

Didab is a German-language learning platform for people with learning difficulties. In the classic version, it includes multimedia learning units in easy language for a wide range of topics with a more or less close connection to the topic of work. In the extended version, Didab can also be used as a platform for personal learning content and made accessible to participants.

EXAMPLES

On the one hand, Didab provides content ranging from the presentation of work by experts in their own field to tips for planning holidays in easy language.

"The learning platform has been designed primarily for people with learning difficulties. This means that great emphasis was also placed on simple structure and usability. That stands out particularly positively."

WhatsDo

WHAT IS WhatsDo?

WhatsDo is a small but solid tool, that guides you through the process of decision making. It makes you reflecting on your choices, the criterias regarding that specific choice and how important they are in relation to others. It then shows you graphically, how good your choices meet the criterias.

EXAMPLES

When a client is insecure in the process of decision making, for example how to choose between different training options in the care profession or a direct contract as support staff, this tool can be used to guide the client through this process. The ‘result’ is obviously not binding, but the process of the app makes you think of your options in a very structured way.

"The actual benefit of that tool is not the result, but the process, where you are guided step by step in dismantling and analyzing your choices and possible decisions."
