#98 - IEP Transition Planning Series Recap & A Few Announcements

The Transition Plan goes into the IEP at the age of 14 or 16. At this time, all IEP goals should point directly to these long term post secondary goals.  Despite the tremendous importance of the Transition Plan, it is often overlooked or approached as a last minute legally required add on. After a few announcements regarding what is next for the LOMAH Podcast, this episode gives an overview of the 13 episode Transition Planning series. Guests in the series educated us on aspects of the transition plan and tips for how to get our school district on board in creating better post secondary goals as well as providing necessary supports to reach those goals. You will hear an overview of each episode as well as a 60 second clip so you can circle back to those of interest and need. Episodes in the series are listed below.
