Project Description:

The New England Rehabilitation Continuing Education Program (NERCEP) is the primary resource for training and technical assistance to providers of employment and independent living services in the region. NERCEP offers a wide array of staff training and technical support to Community Rehabilitation Providers (CRPs) and Independent Living Centers (ILCs). Training offered through NERCEP will address the needs of all levels of staff-direct service workers, supervisors, management, and directors. Training approaches will take advantage of the most current direct and electronic technology. The goal is to create the maximum access to training through a broad range of formats. NERCEP also offers technical assistance to CRPs and ILCs to support them to use state-of-the-art knowledge in designing and delivering employment and independent living services for people with disabilities.
