Special Education Educators:

When the school bus stops coming, too often students with disabilities are not prepared to enter employment, training, education, living, and communities as well-prepared young adults.

To counter this common reality, IDEA 2004 highly emphasizes transition planning, post-high school goals, and transition services as the bridge to successfully cross over from high school to post high school life.

The Wizdom TransPlanner! helps students with disabilities, their families and their teachers set the stage for a successful and satisfying transition to post high school life.

The Wizdom TransPlanner! fosters those conversations that result in meaningful, student-directed individualized transition plans, and identifies community agencies who can shoulder some of the burden in providing transition services. TransPlanner!
