An intake and assessment of the participant is utilized to demonstrate if the BFET program is a good fit with the client in appropriate activities. All intake documents and documentation must be completed and maintained by the provider. The assessment must include, at a minimum:
•Basic skill levels
•Aptitude
•Interests
•Employment history
•Education history
•Employment barriers
•Career goals/interests
•Supportive service needs
The intake and assessment can be completed before or after checking BFET eligibility in eJAS. However, the complete intake and assessment must be completed before assigning (or enrolling) an individual into a BFET activity component.
The assessment may be in the form of a paper document or completed in eJAS. If using a paper document, it must be kept in the participant’s file.
