License the curriculum that’s changing lives at First Place–Phoenix.
A life of meaningful employment requires soft and hard skills. Learn4Independence (L4I) is an evidence-based curriculum that equips adults with autism with those skills so they can step into a life they can call their own.
Learn4Independence is a 32-course curriculum developed for adults with autism that focuses on independent living skills and career readiness. Unique curriculum elements accommodate various learning differences and incorporate universally designed instruction adaptable to your community and cultural needs. Adults seeking sustainable employment and a more self-sufficient, independent life can thrive with L4I.
Each course contains 16–17 modules and is designed with a similar structure presenting new material while assessing knowledge and mastery. A comprehensive collection of supplemental materials includes worksheets, projects, presentations, midterms and final exams. Courses vary in length; some progress across four semesters, starting with basic information and building to more advanced concepts of independent living and employment.
Learn4Independence students master essential topics for a purposeful life filled with possibilities. (The number of parts per course is listed below.)
