Abstract:
Objective To systematically analyze the characteristics of functioning and vocational competency of college students with disabilities and explore effective career development pathways and methods.Methods This study systematically examined the functional characteristics and occupational competency structure of college students with disabilities,and proposed pathways to enhance their career development,using Internation-al Classification of Functioning,Disability and Health(ICF),rehabilitation competency framework(RCF),and achievement motivation theory.Results The study analyzed the functional performance of college students with disabilities across dimensions such as body functions and structures,activities and participation,and environmental factors,as well as their impact on occupational activities,using the Core Sets for Vocational Rehabilitation and the WHO Disability Assessment Schedule 2.0(WHODAS 2.0).The study outlined the occupational competency framework for these students and proposed three synergistic pathways to enhance their career development,including empowerment,functional compensation,and inclusive environmental support,based on RCF and achievement motivation theory.Early in-tervention,professional career services and multi-stakeholder collaboration mechanisms were recommended to provide lifelong,personalized career counseling,guidance and support based on precise occupational needs and competency assessments.Conclusion The career development of college students with disabilities is influenced by multiple factors,including indi-vidual functional status,occupational competency and environmental conditions.Implementing strategies such as empowerment,functional compensation,and inclusive environmental support could safeguard their right to em-ployment in an inclusive workplace,effectively improving their employment quality and sustainable career devel-opment capabilities.
