The School- and JobPrescription adaptation of IPS, allowing for temporary internships as a step towards obtaining the goal of paid competitive employment and facilitating flexible combinations of employment and education, showed encouraging results. These were however not sustained after closure of the intervention. At the 2-year follow up, Job- and SchoolPrescription advantages had waned, underscoring the point in IPS that support should be time-unlimited.
