We’ll set up a meeting with you and your VRS counselor, and create a job search plan that aligns with your hopes and dreams.
Find Meaningful Work
Together, we’ll research and outreach to find a job placement that suits you. Because this process is so individualized, the timeline will look different for everyone.
Receive Ongoing Support
We’re in this for the long haul. After you get hired, we’ll stick around for 90 days to make sure you have the resources and support you need to succeed at your job.
Nichole Fetrow
I’m Nichole Fetrow, founder of Transcend Workforce Solutions. I spent 15 years as a transition teacher in Minnesota, where I prepared young adults with disabilities for a productive and purposeful life. I watched too many of my former students slip between the cracks after they graduated from our program due to a lack of job coaches in our state. That broke my heart. I started this business to eliminate that problem – because everyone deserves hope and a purpose after graduation.

Our Services
Work Experiences
We match young adults with short-term job experiences so they can explore their passions and be able to identify their dream jobs.
Job Placement
We can help young adults find a job they could see themselves in long-term, offering them stability and a sense of purpose after they graduate.
Job Coaching
Once our young adults land a job, we offer one-on-one coaching to ensure they’re completing the assigned tasks, communicating effectively, and enjoying their work.
“We are excited to be working with Nichole. She is very organized and is determined to help young adults find jobs that appeal to them. She understands our son and uses her skills she has gained being a Special Education Transition teacher, to get him to communicate what he wants in a job and the dreams that he didn’t feel confident sharing with others. I’m so grateful for her positive energy and direct communication with us. She has really made a difference for our son.”

According to a state survey,
Two-thirds of employers in Minnesota, at locations with 5 or more employees, employ individuals with disabilities.
Employers are equally satisfied with their employees with disabilities as they are with their employees without disabilities.
Employers noted that their staff members with disabilities are valuable, loyal, bring a lot to the job, and have a good attitude and work ethic.
