Beginning at least by age 14 or 8th grade, transition planning is a part of the process for establishing for all students receiving special education services their Individual Education Plans (IEPs).
The IEP team always now includes the student as a part of the transition planning team. Also, any agency representative who may provide and/or pay for transition services becomes a critical member of the planning team.
The areas of employment, post-secondary education or training, community participation and independent living are all to be considered in the transition planning and IEP process.
This means that School-to-Work possibilities must always, by law, be explored during the IEP process.
