The purpose of this Center is to build the capacity of Federal and State public agencies and private entities to support people with disabilities in achieving self-employment, business ownership, or telecommuting as employment outcomes. Two specific objectives will guide the Center's activities:

1) Increase the supply of trained personnel available to public and private agencies by developing, piloting, and disseminating a curriculum on the evidence-based practices of self-employment, business ownership, and telecommuting.

2) Maintain and improve the skill, knowledge, and quality of rehabilitation personnel by developing, evaluating, and widely disseminating short term training and resources on the evidence-based practices of self-employment, business ownership, and telecommuting.
