Progress report from Cecilia-Malaysia

The photo was taken in 2005 when Cecilia visited a bakery to learn on employment of persons with intellectual disabilities.
Last year is the first practice for the transition ( Pre-vocational ) section and it very useful for the trainees and our centre meaning transition is bridging class before they could go for sheltered workshop ( Bakery, Recycle paper & Souvernir ) and to OETU ( Open Employement Training Unit ) in pre-voc they have gone through 3 times assessment P.E.S( Precise Estimation Sheet ) this covering social, behavioural, living skill, reading,writing, counting etc.. and the passing mark are 127 or 147 ( I froget will reconfirm to you.. later )meaning trainee can proceed to OETU for 2 years before taking work to open market.

Personally...I found having an Pre-voc unit is very much important and useful for our refference as we know their level and where to put them not like before we just pick randomly based on our judgement. From that assessment I know where their level and continue facilitate them.

I will give the full report to you soon....I promise.
