Featured Resource

This 5-part, on-demand learning series helps professionals understand the transition-to-adulthood process so they can clearly explain the IEP transition plan, answer questions, and guide families and youth as they prepare for the future. Participants will learn about transition planning, assessments, services, and activities that build readiness for adulthood, and ways to support youth in developing self-advocacy skills.

Each session is practical, easy to follow, and designed to provide tools professionals can use right away. Participants who complete all training requirements will earn 1 Continuing Education contact hour.
