The 17 youth with intellectual functional diversity who participate in the training course for the employment and independent life of young people with intellectual disabilities organised by the Unidiversitat Programme, with the subsidy of the ONCE Foundation and the European Social Fund with the support of the vice-rector’s offices for Students and Social Commitment and for Studies and Teaching, and the Diversity and Disability Unit of the UJI, have started their work placements in the associated companies.

This pioneering initiative in the public university of Castellón, also developed in some Spanish and other international universities, aims to provide university training to young people with intellectual disabilities to improve their autonomy, academic training and job preparation.

The course began in November 2021 and consists of 300 hours (200 hours of academic training and 100 hours of work experience in a company) and 17 youth between 18 and 30 years of age are taking part. This action is an opportunity to develop inclusive experiences within the university community and to promote mutual learning and coexistence in diversity.

This initiative has been promoted by the Vice-Rector’s Office for Students and Social Commitment and the Vice-Rector’s Office for Studies and Teaching of the UJI. It also has the collaboration of the Diversity and Disability Unit and the work of all the teaching staff involved, as well as nine associations in the field of disability and 13 companies in the province of Castellón.
