Transition Services

Transition services help students with disabilities prepare for life after secondary school, consisting of coordinated activities that are:

• focused on improving the academic and functional achievement of the student to facilitate their movement from school to post-school activities, including post-secondary education, vocational education, integrated employment (including supported employment), continuing and adult education, adult services, independent living, or community participation;

• based on the individual student’s needs, taking into account their strengths, preferences, and interests; and

• include instruction, related services, community experiences, the development of employment and other post-school adult living objectives, and, if appropriate, acquisition of daily living skills and functional vocational evaluation.
