• Age-Appropriate Transition Assessments & Career Plans

    The Age-Appropriate Transition Assessment & Career Plan connects learning experiences across subject areas. The student's plan records attainment of knowledge and skills. It documents a history of achievement that students build from elementary school to high school. The Age-Appropriate Transition Assessment & Career Plan also incorporates the transition planning process that is highly desirable for all students and required for students with disabilities.

    Written documentation of the Age- Appropriate Transition Assessment & Career Plan must be completed during the IEP that the student turns age 12.  The assessment must be completed each year, reviewed at the CSE meeting, and uploaded to the Document Repository.  Beginning at age 15, the assessment needs to be completed along with documenting the student's transition in the Measurable Post-Secondary Goals and Coordinated Set of Transition Activities in the IEP.

    Before writing your student's IEP, be sure to complete the correct Age-Appropriate Transition Assessment & Career Plan document.  The documents are categorized by age and classification as outlined below.
