| Transition, the IEP and Indicator 13...It doesn't have to be an unlucky number | Schools are now required to develop plans for IEP students to help them transition into the workplace and/or continuing education. In reality, all students need help to plan for a successful future. Find out how to make transition planning a very vital, useful and enjoyable process. Practical, effective techniques will be presented on how to help you help your students and their families with the following: transition assessment, goal-setting, linkages, and follow-up. Jim will provide examples including "mock IEP" pages for fictitious students with a variety of transition scenarios. A discussion of assessment and other instructional resources available through the RCCSEC Transition Resource Library will also be included. |
| National Career Readiness Certificate: Give you Students a Head Start! | ACT has profiled thousands of jobs and identified core skills needed for entry level employment. WorkKeys Reading for Information, Applied Math and Locating Information assessments are the foundations for this nationally recognized certificate. The Prairie State Exam utilizes two of the three assessments. Last year the EFE #330 became a state pilot for the ACT National Career Readiness System. Over 100 students earned a certificate that documents their ability to apply knowledge to solve real workplace problems. The Champaign County Chamber of Commerce and the local Workforce Development Board endores this certification. |
