Citation preview
The IEP team must address transition services for the IEP that will be in effect when the student is 14 ½.
SECONDARY TRANSITION
This is known by the state as Indicator 13. There are 8 item requirements that must be met for your school district to be in compliance. If just one of those eight requirements are not met—then you are not in compliance and this will cause your district to be flagged by the state. If this happens then the state will begin checking your IEP’s and you will have to make changes and your district will be required to write a School Improvement Plan.
FORM CC• Before inviting any outside agency to the IEP meeting
regarding Transition Services—Consent must be granted before any outside agency can be put on the Notice of Conference. That does not mean—invite them and then get the signature at the meeting.
• Outside agency also means that if your school district is not a Community Unit District (Same District Number for Pre-K through 12th grade)—you must gain consent to invite (ex: school counselor to an 8th graders meeting, etc.) even if it is the same school counselor for both districts.
AGE-APPROPRIATE TRANSITION ASSESSMENTS
The four areas identified to develop the transition plan are:
EMPLOYMENTEDUCATIONTRAININGINDEPENDENT LIVING—This area may not be
needed but if this is the first time assessment for the student—then collect some type of data to determine (none needed).
AGE-APPROPRIATE TRANSITION ASSESSMENTS
Assessment Type: Could include: Illinois Work Information
Interest Inventories Student/Family Interview
PLAN/EXPLORE/PSAE Career Cruising
