Saloviita, Timo, “An Inclusive Adult Education Program for Students with Mild to Severe Developmental Disabilities: A Pilot Project in Finland,” in Developmental Disabilities Bulletin; Vol. 28, No. 2 (2000), pp.27-39.

An inclusive, zero-reject adult education program supported students with mild to severe developmental disabilities in their participation in mainstream education in Finland in various institutions, such as vocational schools, institutes, and university faculties. While not formally enrolled as students of these institutions, they were allowed to participate. Their curricula were individually adapted, and they received support from program facilitators and student volunteers. Experiences of the first 15 students in the program indicated that students themselves, their families, and the program facilitators, although evaluations differed with settings, evaluated the program and its results positively.
