Statewide Transition Goal 2012−13 School Year
All students with disabilities, age 16 or older and eligible for special education services, shall have an IEP that includes measureable postsecondary goals that are annually updated and based upon age appropriate transition assessment and transition services, including courses of study, that will reasonably enable the student to meet those postsecondary and annual IEP goals related to the student’s transition services needs.

SPP Indicator 13Monitoring Priority - Effective Supervision Part B/Effective Transition.
Indicator - Percent of youth with IEPs aged 16 and above with an IEP that includes appropriate measurable post-secondary goals that are annually updated and based upon an age appropriate transition assessment, transition services, including courses of study that will reasonably enable the student to meet those post-secondary goals, and annual IEP goals related to the student’s transition services needs. There also must be evidence that the student was invited to the IEP team meeting where transition services are to be discussed and evidence that, if appropriate, a representative of any participating agency was invited to the IEP team meeting with the prior consent of the parent or student who has reached the age of majority (20 USC 1416(a)(3)(B)).
Measurement: Percent = [(# of youth with IEPs aged 16 and above with an IEP that includes appropriate measurable post-secondary goals that are annually updated and based upon an age appropriate transition assessment, transition services, including courses of study that will reasonably enable the student to meet those post-secondary goals, and annual IEP goals related to the student’s transition services needs. There also must be evidence that the student was invited to the IEP team meeting where transition services are to be discussed and evidence that, if appropriate, a representative of any participating agency was invited to the IEP team meeting with the prior consent of the parent or student who has reached the age of majority) divided by the (# of youth with an IEP age 16 and above)] times 100.

• Improve data related to Indicator 13• Clarify CASEMIS questions 5-8
regarding transition elements. Where is the data drawn from in terms of the IEP? What IEP item/question gets to what is needed (meeting notice, IEP goals page)? Locally, staff need to know so training can be completed.
• Provide policy, definitions, and technical assistance to the field about each item. This would include technical assistance regarding age appropriate transition assessments, course of study, and other elements of transition.
• Eliminate notion of a separate Individual Transition Plan (ITP).
• When communication goes to district regarding CASEMIS noncompliance, include the directive that line staff be informed of the need for correction of noncompliance.
