Virtual Reality Job Interview Training
Matthew J. Smith, PhD, is a Professor of Social Work at the University of Michigan and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. Smith is the director of the NIH-Funded Level Up: Employment Skills Simulation Lab. The mission of his lab is to develop and evaluate technology-based interventions to help obtain and sustain employment for people from marginalized and underserved communities.
Dr. Smith's presentation will focus on his program of research that develops and evaluates virtual reality job interview training as an enhancement to existing employment services, in particular, the individual placement and support model of supported employment.
Making Sense of Employment Research (MSER) highlights employment research published in the Psychiatric Rehabilitation Journal. Each webinar will be designed to discuss a recently published study in a clear and relevant way, even if you know little or nothing about research.
MSER webinars are also available as podcasts on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and YouTube Music
