The Nebraska Center for the Blind is a program of the Nebraska Commission for the Blind and Visually Impaired (NCBVI). The Center is a full-time comprehensive training program for adults approved by the National Blindness Professional Certification Board as a Structured Discovery Training Center. We serve primarily Nebraska residents who are either vocational rehabilitation (VR) or older individuals who are blind (OIB) clients. We also provide training to new employees of NCBVI, and occasionally VR clients from outside of Nebraska. Client enrollment is limited to 10 students at a time to maintain small class sizes.

The Shop Instructor and Client Resource Counselor positions are open until filled. Each position requires a Bachelor's degree and 2 years of relevant experience, or a Master's degree and 1 year of relevant experience. In addition, the successful applicant will complete 600 hours of paid sleepshade training in order to earn their Certification as a Vocational Rehabilitation Counselor for the Blind. Both positions are full-time and are located in Lincoln. These are jobs with the State of Nebraska and benefits include: 13 paid holidays, 156% employer match on retirement, and the state pays 79% of health insurance premiums.
