Understanding Transition Assessment

As stated in the previous page, Transition assessment is a key part of preparing students with an IEP for life after high school. These assessments help identify each student’s preferences, interests, needs, and strengths. The results guide the development of their Postsecondary Transition Plan (PTP), which supports goals in education and training, employment, and independent living.  For further information, click on the additional topic areas below:
