Sec. 669.380  What is the objective assessment that is authorized as an intensive service?

    (a) An objective assessment is a procedure designed to 
comprehensively assess the skills, abilities, and interests of each 
employment and training participant through the use of diagnostic 
testing and other assessment tools. The methods used by the grantee in 
conducting the objective assessment may include:
    (1) Structured in-depth interviews;
    (2) Skills and aptitude assessments;
    (3) Performance assessments (for example, skills or work samples, 
including those that measure interest and capability to train in 
nontraditional employment);
    (4) Interest or attitude inventories;
    (5) Career guidance instruments;
    (6) Aptitude tests; and
    (7) Basic skills tests.
    (b) The objective assessment is an ongoing process that requires the 
grantee staff to remain in close consultation with each participant to 
continuously obtain current information about the participant's progress 
that may be relevant to his/her Individual Employment Plan (IEP).
