Meaningful employment offers all of us a sense of purpose, independence, and belonging—and for people with disabilities, it can be a transformative milestone. At Noble, we know how impactful finding the right career can be. That’s why we offer employment programs tailored to equip adults with disabilities for meaningful roles in the workforce. Here’s how training and placement services are paving the way for success.
Building Skills Through Training
Preparation is key to securing meaningful employment, and Noble’s employment services focus on equipping individuals with the skills they need to thrive. From career readiness training to hands-on skill building, our programs are designed to meet each person where they are.
Take our Noble Employment and Workforce Services (N.E.W.S.), for example. Through this program, individuals become Noble employees and begin their journey on a career ladder that incorporates their interests & cultivates their independence. In a team-based environment, people receive individualized support while working on-site with Noble’s partner companies like Eli Lilly and Company (showing the safety goggle recycling initiative here), Corteva Agriscience and CBRE. This real-world experience empowers them to develop workplace skills & grow in their self-confidence.
For young adults still exploring their career options, Noble offers services that assess interests, abilities, and goals. Our Career Exploration Group (CEG) takes this a step further, introducing participants to various industries, job sites, and volunteer roles to help identify the right path for them.
Partnering with Employers
Employment programs thrive through partnerships with businesses that value diversity and inclusion. At Noble, we actively connect individuals with opportunities at companies that celebrate their abilities and contributions.
Businesses that hire through Noble’s employment services report increased productivity, improved team dynamics, and enhanced workplace culture. Employers also benefit from on-the-job support provided by Noble employment consultants, ensuring a smooth transition for new hires.
Success in the Workplace
Our approach doesn’t stop at training & placement—it’s about helping individuals build on long-term success. Noble provides continued coaching, adaptive technology, and other resources to empower the people we serve to grow in their roles. For young adults, this might mean making the transition from the classroom to the workforce, landing their first job or transitioning from a part-time role to a full-time career.
Shaping the Future of Employment with Noble
Through employment services like N.E.W.S. and CEG, Noble is helping our community realize a future where individuals with disabilities are seen for their abilities, not limitations. We’re proud to support individuals in building careers that empower them to Dream It. Live It.
