Ever have a question about hiring people with disabilities but were too afraid to ask?

We have the answers!

During this 60-minute webinar (we know you are busy professionals!), DSB experts will provide demos on the newest and latest adaptive technology and devices for employees with visual impairments, discuss training and supports provided to job seekers, explain how we support the new hire and assist with retention, and answer any of "those" questions that you have wanted to ask, but didn't have the space to do so.

Who Should Attend?

• Human resources professionals.

• Staffing and contracting professionals

• Office managers

• Small business owners

• Any business or employer who wants to access to qualified, work-ready employees.

DSB is proud to offer resources and guidance regarding disability and employment related questions, and to partner with our local community businesses in creating an inclusive workforce.
