We Aut-To-Be Partners: How E-Commerce, Autism, and Employment Fit Together

Professional Continuing Education Series

Instructors: Joel Vidovic, M.A., BCBA, COBA and Alison Thomas, MEd., TTW

Description: The E-commerce industry is currently experiencing rapid growth with platforms such as Amazon and eBay offering attractive options for U.S. shoppers. The U.S. Department of Commerce's Quarterly Retail E-Commerce Sales Report for the 2nd Quarter of 2018 indicates that e-commerce sales now account for 9.6% of all retail sales- nearly tripling since 2009. As adults with autism continue to be under-represented in the labor market, might this industry provide some encouraging employment opportunities? We think so. This presentation will describe a model for creating jobs for individuals with autism that is currently in practice at The Autism Model School in Toledo, OH.
