The Transition Process

No, later than the first IEP to be in effect when the student turns 14 years of age, the ARD committee must consider and, if appropriate, address transition needs in the IEP (what is new is that the federal requirement to address certain postsecondary goals by age 16 has moved to age 14 to align with other Texas transition requirements).  New requirements include all of the components of the transition process.
