  Transition requirements: A guide for states, districts, schools, universities and families 
Description: (from the introduction) The purpose of this monograph is to provide technical assistance for the appropriate implementation of the transition requirements of Public Law 105-17, the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) of 1997 and the final regulations published on March 12, 1999 (http://www.ideapractices.org/lawandregs.htm). This monograph is designed to clarify the transition requirements of the IDEA, provide samples, and suggest practices to implement those requirements. The intended audience for this monograph is broad: state, district and school personnel; families and institutions of higher education. It may be used by state education agency personnel, local education agency administrators, and teachers as a basis for evaluating and improving the transition requirements in Individualized Education Programs (IEPs). Students and families may find it useful to enhance their understanding of the transition requirements and their capacity to actively plan for the student’s future. Institutions of higher education could use it as a teaching tool and resource. Readers are encouraged to use the checklists, letters and forms that are included and to adapt them as needed.
