Put on a work uniform and name badge

When to use this goal

For students in work-based learning whose job site requires a uniform (polo, apron, hair net, non-slip shoes, badge) and who arrive half dressed or need staff to fix it. Present levels in dressing with fasteners decide fit. Use the actual uniform from the site.

Baseline
Observe the routine on at least 3 typical days before setting a target. Mark each step as independent (no adult prompt of any kind), completed with support (note the prompt type), or not completed. Count only independent steps toward the baseline, and note which steps are missed most often; those may need direct teaching rather than more practice.
Tips
Ask the site supervisor for the uniform rules in writing. Practice tying the apron behind the back at school; it is the step most often missed. Fade the job coach's position from beside the student to the doorway.
Limits
Sites change uniforms; update the checklist. Does not measure work performance.

Goal

By the annual IEP review date, at the start of a job site shift in the staff changing area, with the uniform in a work bag, the student will put on each part of the work uniform and clip on the name badge before clocking in, performing at least 7 of 8 steps independently, across 4 consecutive shifts, as measured by a task-analysis checklist collected at each shift.

Baseline: 3 of 8 steps independently.

Measurability check11 of 11 met
  • Met: Observable behavior. Stated as an action.

  • Met: Condition. Stated.

  • Met: Unit fits the behavior. Task-analysis steps fits this behavior.

  • Met: Explicit criterion. Number and unit stated.

  • Met: Mastery rule and schedule. Both stated.

  • Met: Method produces the metric. Task-analysis checklist gives task-analysis steps data.

  • Met: Review timeframe. Stated.

  • Met: Baseline and target compatible. Same unit, change in the right direction.

  • Met: Aligned with area of need. Still about Daily Living Skills.

  • Met: Level of support. Defined.

  • Met: Blanks filled in. Nothing left to fill in.

Checks structure and wording only. Whether the goal fits the student is the team's call.

Short-term objectives (optional)

When are objectives required?

Required for students on alternate assessments (34 CFR §300.320(a)(2)(ii)); some states require them for everyone.
