As voted on by patrons, our Summer 2023 Listener Choice episode is all about working with our clients to support effective IEP services related to transition planning. Given the continuing need to support clients, parents, and educational teams in creating meaningful and rewarding adult outcomes after school ends, we take a look at ways this planning can be done best and with a focus on the self-determination and participation of our clients. If you’ve ever been in an IEP meeting where adults talked about rather than to a student, this episode is for you! This episode is available for 1.0 LEARNING CEU. Wish that CE was free?
