Workplace Assessor Course (WAC).

The Workplace Assessor Course (WAC) has been designed and created by Hands Free Computing as a means of supporting holistic assessors in the workplace as well as helping employers to become more confident when engaging or employing people with disabilities.

The course is CPD accredited and equates to 11 hours’ worth of CPD learning. The WAC is not just a one-off course for individuals but an on-going resource that is continually updated to ensure that the course and learning material within remain current and relevant.

It has been designed to increase the disability knowledge, confidence and understanding of the trainee by addressing the main areas of employment solutions through 9 separate modules. These include;

1. Introduction to the Workplace Assessor Course

4. No Cost / Low Cost Apps
5. Assistive Technologies and Assessment
6. Assistive Ergonomics and Assessment
7. Mental Health Awareness
8. Workplace Strategy Coaching
