Not Sure What a Student Still Needs Before Graduation?
Most special education teams understand the importance of transition planning. The challenge is finding the time to gather meaningful information, assess readiness, and develop individualized recommendations while balancing large caseloads and competing responsibilities.
Schools often find themselves asking:
Is this student ready for college, employment, or adult services?
What skills should we be focusing on next?
How do we connect assessment results to meaningful transition goals?
What supports will this student need after graduation?
How do we build staff knowledge and confidence around transition planning?
That is where Cochran IEP Consulting can help.
Many schools have students who are doing well academically but still need a clearer picture of their readiness for life after high school.
Others need additional support to complete comprehensive transition assessments, develop actionable recommendations, or strengthen transition planning practices across their programs.
