For some twenty years, the Transition Initiative has been proactive in the design and delivery of quality training and technical assistance to CT schools.  The Transition Initiative strives to meet the needs of students, families, educators, and local and state agency representatives in areas critical to student success from middle to high school and into the adult world.  Person Centered Planning, Transition Assessments, Developing Meaningful IEP Goals & Objectives that Align with the CT Standards, Social Skills Training, Self-Advocacy, and the use of assistive technology continue to be high priority training need areas.  SERC’s goal and commitment continues to be the academic and vocational success of students in the least restrictive environment, leading to meaningful post-school outcomes.  Students transitioning from high school into the adult world are the future.
