Our “Aid” Approach

 

At COG Connections, Our methodology is rooted in the acronym “AID” representing “Attract, Inform, and Direct.” The AID process is implemented with every candidate to ensure their readiness for employment.

Attract: Our strategy revolves around establishing a platform where neurodivergent candidates can come together to explore and access opportunities. Acting as a reliable resource for these candidates, we can subsequently provide training, qualification, and facilitate suitable matches for the benefit of all parties involved.

Inform: Within our community, candidates are consistently involved in educational activities, corporate best practices, individual and group coaching. This dynamic approach helps them recognize their skills, enhance areas that require development, and maintains an enriching environment for continuous learning within the community.

Direct: Candidates remain in our pool until a suitable alignment is found between their skill set and an employer’s requirements. Following this, a series of steps including interviews, preparation, and training is undertaken to equip them for their prospective position. Details such as work hours, virtual or in-person arrangements, accommodations, and any unique needs are meticulously arranged.[/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”2_5″ _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”http://cogconnections.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/main-image.png” title_text=”hands-together” disabled_on=”on|on|off” _builder_version=”4.21.0″ background_image=”http://cogconnections.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/hands-together.jpg” background_size=”custom” background_image_width=”82%” background_image_height=”99%” background_position=”center_right” background_horizontal_offset=”-1%” transform_scale=”107%|107%” transform_translate=”17px|62px” transform_translate_linked=”off” max_height_last_edited=”off|tablet” custom_margin=”||30px||false|false” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][/et_pb_image][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.21.0″ background_color=”#FFFFFF” custom_padding=”5px||16px||false|false” top_divider_style=”wave” top_divider_color=”#FFFFFF” top_divider_height=”180px” bottom_divider_height=”282px” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row column_structure=”2_5,3_5″ _builder_version=”4.21.0″ transform_scale_tablet=”” transform_scale_phone=”” transform_scale_last_edited=”on|tablet” transform_translate=”51px|0px” transform_translate_tablet=”-1px|0px” transform_translate_phone=”-1px|0px” transform_translate_last_edited=”on|tablet” transform_translate_linked=”off” transform_rotate_tablet=”” transform_rotate_phone=”” transform_rotate_last_edited=”on|tablet” transform_skew_tablet=”” transform_skew_phone=”” transform_skew_last_edited=”on|tablet” transform_origin_tablet=”” transform_origin_phone=”” transform_origin_last_edited=”on|tablet” transform_styles_last_edited=”on|tablet” custom_padding=”5px||7px|||” transform_styles_tablet=”” transform_styles_phone=”” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”2_5″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding_tablet=”||20px||false|false” custom_padding_phone=”” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|tablet” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”http://cogconnections.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/eadmin-ajax.php-3.png” title_text=”eadmin-ajax.php-3″ _builder_version=”4.21.0″ transform_translate=”-120px|0px” transform_translate_linked=”off” positioning=”absolute” horizontal_offset=”-88px” width=”100%” global_colors_info=”{}”][/et_pb_image][et_pb_image src=”http://cogconnections.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/meeting-clients.jpg” title_text=”meeting-clients” _builder_version=”4.21.0″ transform_scale_tablet=”” transform_scale_phone=”” transform_scale_last_edited=”on|phone” transform_translate=”25px|94px” transform_translate_tablet=”25px|34px” transform_translate_phone=”0px|20px” transform_translate_last_edited=”on|tablet” transform_translate_linked=”off” transform_rotate_tablet=”” transform_rotate_phone=”” transform_rotate_last_edited=”on|tablet” transform_skew_tablet=”” transform_skew_phone=”” transform_skew_last_edited=”on|tablet” transform_origin_tablet=”” transform_origin_phone=”” transform_origin_last_edited=”on|tablet” transform_styles_last_edited=”on|phone” max_height_tablet=”400px” max_height_phone=”” max_height_last_edited=”on|tablet” custom_margin=”|||-5vw|false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”|||0vw|false|false” custom_margin_phone=”” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|tablet” transform_styles_tablet=”” transform_styles_phone=”” border_radii=”on|9px|9px|9px|9px” box_shadow_style=”preset2″ box_shadow_horizontal=”-11px” global_colors_info=”{}”][/et_pb_image][/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”3_5″ _builder_version=”4.21.0″ background_color=”RGBA(255,255,255,0)” custom_padding=”50px|40px|60px|40px|false|true” custom_padding_tablet=”|50px||50px|false|true” custom_padding_phone=”|10px||10px|false|true” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|tablet” border_radii=”on|10px|10px|10px|10px” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.21.0″ text_font=”PT Sans||||||||” text_font_size=”17px” text_line_height=”1.6em” ul_text_color=”gcid-2a8ef28b-73c1-4d01-ac44-f4ff5d82a3f5″ ul_font_size=”17px” ul_line_height=”2.2em” header_2_font=”Playfair Display|700|||||||” header_2_text_color=”gcid-ade9b867-21fd-41fe-8635-35bd33339b83″ header_2_font_size=”35px” header_2_line_height=”1.2em” header_3_font=”Playfair Display|700|||||||” header_3_text_color=”gcid-ade9b867-21fd-41fe-8635-35bd33339b83″ header_3_font_size=”25px” header_3_line_height=”1.5em” header_2_font_size_tablet=”32px” header_2_font_size_phone=”24px” header_2_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{%22gcid-ade9b867-21fd-41fe-8635-35bd33339b83%22:%91%22header_2_text_color%22,%22header_3_text_color%22%93,%22gcid-2a8ef28b-73c1-4d01-ac44-f4ff5d82a3f5%22:%91%22ul_text_color%22%93}”]
