Description

he process of transitioning from K-12 education to post-secondary education or work is often a challenging time for youth with disabilities and supports are often required for successful outcomes. This course will help to prepare professionals who intend to work with youth and young adults with disabilities during this transition phase. An emphasis will be directed towards models/frameworks of transition, legislation affecting services, professional roles, and systems in service provision. The goal is to provide students with an orientation to the stakeholders and professions involving transition, especially avenues for improved collaboration. This course is designed to promote scholarly discourse about the topics related to transition and will require students to take an active participation in the materials, reading, and discussions throughout the semester.
