Section 5: Postsecondary Transition

Age Appropriate Transition Assessments

• Include at least two AATA's (one of which should always be completed by the student)
• The assessment can be as simple as a student interest survey, or it can be more involved

Writing the IEP section 5 goals

• In the IEP, be sure to include the following:
  • Name and Date of AATA
  • Who administered the assessment
  • Preferences, Interests, Needs and Strengths (PINS)
    • Include PINS in each section: Postsecondary Training and Education, Competitive Integrated Employment, and Independent Living
• Remember, the goals you write in section 5 are addressing things that occur after graduation
• If no independent living goal is needed, must state that in the profile with justification
