ABVE
ABVE
ABVE (American Board of Vocational Experts) is a professional credentialing body that certifies vocational experts in the United States. The ABVE establishes and maintains professional standards and ethics for its members, who are often called upon to provide expert testimony in legal proceedings related to employment and disability.
History
The American Board of Vocational Experts (ABVE) was established in 1980 to promote professional excellence among vocational experts. The organization provides certification, continuing education, and a forum for the exchange of professional ideas and information.
Certification
ABVE certification is a rigorous process that includes meeting educational and experience requirements, passing a written examination, and successfully completing an oral examination. The certification process is designed to ensure that ABVE-certified vocational experts have the necessary knowledge and skills to provide high-quality vocational expert services.
Role of ABVE-Certified Vocational Experts
Vocational experts who are certified by the ABVE provide a variety of services, including vocational assessment, vocational rehabilitation planning, and vocational expert testimony. They often work in legal settings, where they provide expert opinions on issues related to employment and disability. For example, they may be called upon to assess an individual's ability to work after an injury or illness, or to provide an opinion on the vocational impact of a disability.
Professional Standards and Ethics
The ABVE has established a Code of Ethics that all members are required to adhere to. The Code of Ethics includes principles related to competence, integrity, professional responsibility, respect for people's rights and dignity, and social responsibility.
