When determining the initial placement for W-2 applicants, FEPs must use all of the information gathered from the:
Informal assessment; (See 5.2)
Educational needs assessment; (See 5.3)
Progress made in up-front job search, if assigned; (See 2.9.2) and
Results of any other vocational evaluations or formal assessments. (See 5.1.1)
When making initial placements, FEP must also:
Discuss and review the factors impacting the placement decision with the applicant;
Never delay placement because a formal assessment is pending (See 5.1.1), and
Document the reasons for the placement decision in case comments.
FEPs are required to provide on-going case management which includes periodic reassessment of the current placement. Depending on circumstances at the time, the individual’s appropriateness for a particular placement may change. Participants must always be placed at the highest level of participation possible.
The W-2 program has the placement options described in this chapter. Some placements are specifically for applicants and others are specifically for on-going participants.
