Transition Planning 2024-2025

The Transition Improvement Grant (TIG) offers two professional development online courses focused on transition planning. It is recommended that participants new to transition planning begin with the Introduction to the Postsecondary Transition Plan (PTP) course, as it provides a comprehensive overview of the PTP. This foundational knowledge will prepare participants for the Implementing the Postsecondary Transition Plan course, where they will learn practical strategies for applying the PTP to support successful student outcomes. Taking the courses in this order ensures a clearer and more effective learning experience.

The Implementing the Postsecondary Transition Plan is a Self-Paced Macro Course. This means it is a comprehensive, in-depth learning experiences designed to provide a broad understanding of critical transition topics. These courses allow participants to dive deeply into a subject matter, covering extensive material which supports professional growth.

The Introduction to Postsecondary Transition Plan is a Self-Paced Micro Course. This means it is short, focused courses targeting specific skills or knowledge areas, perfect for professionals looking for quick, actionable insights they can apply immediately. These courses provide flexibility for learners who want to enhance their expertise in targeted areas without the time commitment of a full-length course.
