New #Transition Planning Guide

Transition planning is an individualized, cyclical process. With each twist and turn of the cycle, we’re helping a student through self-exploration—discovering the things they like as well as the things they don’t like—so that they can look at their postsecondary goals with more awareness. Sometimes that means sticking with the path they’re on, sometimes it means exploring a side path, and sometimes it means choosing a completely new path. Transition services and activities are key to helping students engage in that self-exploration. 

To help you understand where services and activities fit into the planning process and how you can use them for different types of students, the Indiana Secondary Transition Resource Center has created: “Transition Services and Activities: Making the Connection.”  This new 17-page guide contains detailed examples for six different students, each with charts depicting the student’s postsecondary goals and transition services and activities as well as appropriate assessments that inform her/his goals. The guide also includes links to assessments and a page of additional transition resources.

Read “Transition Services and Activities: Making the Connection.”  And, of course, we’ve uploaded the guide to the INSTRC website.  You can find it by typing “Transition Services and Activities” in to the Resource search bar, or we’ve also included under our Resource Collections tab, in the New Administrators and Professionals New to Transition collections.
