Certified Placement Services LLC is a Social Security Ticket to Work Administrative Employment Network (EN). We are an organization that functions as an EN of Record and provides administrative support for Ticket operations through an agreement with affiliate partners, other providers and/or individuals.
If you are age 18 to 64 and you receive Social Security disability benefits then you are likely eligible for Ticket to Work through the Employment Network. Certified Placement Services can give you access to these benefits free of charge!
CPS provides individualized services to meet the needs of each client based on his/her chosen employment goal and service needs. The beneficiary’s goal should ultimately be to cease receipt of disability benefits by finding work at a level that allows them to be self-sustaining. We assess skills, abilities, functional limitations, educational and employment background, and interest to ensure that the beneficiary gets the best opportunity to be successful.
