PTP Tip - Age Appropriate Transition Assessments
Age appropriate transition assessments provide the foundation of the postsecondary transition plan (PTP). These assessments focus on the Preferences, Interests, Needs and Strengths (PINS) of the student. The assessment must be:
· age-appropriate
· on-going, completed at least once annually, and well documented to assist the student and the IEP team in creating measurable postsecondary goals
· focused on employment, education or training and independent living

You can also view the Learn More section embedded in your PTP for effective practice ideas and more resources. Contact your TIG Coordinator if you have any questions regarding transition assessments!
