Abstract
Currently there is a lack of software solutions available which are tailored to the needs of people with acquired brain injuries at the work place. Therefore, an application for mobile devices called Electronic Job Coach (EJO) is proposed to support different cognitive challenges which occur especially during the work like e.g. short term memory which results in difficulties in remembering the work process or the use of tools. EJO uses a client server architecture for mobile devices. The first prototype is introduced and a short impression the further work process is presented. EJO is a joint activity of the technical advisory service of the LVR - Integrationsamt (Integration Agency - IA) and the TU Dortmund University.
