On-the-Job Training (OJT) is an opportunity for the employer to mentor a person with a disability, helping them develop the skills needed to realize their career goals.

During OJT, the trainee interacts on a regular basis with employees who do not have disabilities, hold a regular position, and are paid no less than minimum wage. OJT helps people with disabilities get used to the employment environment while gaining valuable work experience.
