CESA 6 offers a comprehensive approach to providing transition services that help students with disabilities transition into adult life. CESA 6 Transition services provide technical support to your special education instructors to ensure compliance with the transition requirements of IDEA 2004. Specifically, State Performance Plan Indicators 13 and 14 are tied to Transition. Indicator 13 – Percent of youth aged 16 and above with an IEP that includes measurable, postsecondary goals and transition services that will reasonably enable the student to meet their postsecondary goals. Indicator 14 – Percent of youth who had IEPs, are no longer in secondary school and who have been competitively employed, enrolled in some type of postsecondary school, or both, within one year of leaving high school. CESA6 Transition services offer an opportunity to all CESA 6 schools with a cost-effective opportunity to provide valuable training and support to their special education faculty, students, and parents. Training includes the highly successful components of the statewide transition initiative.
