Building Capacity for Successful Transition to Adult Life for Youth with Disabilities

This workshop is designed to enhance knowledge and skills in the development and implementation of person-centered planning systems for students with disabilities (emphasis on low-incidence). The term person-centered refers to an approach to assessment, goal setting and support that is designed from the student's point-of-view. A team of people who know and respect the student is gathered and engages in a facilitated group process that results in a plan for the future. The student and his team participate in a systematic problem-solving process that is documented. Regardless of the type of transition, person-centered planning can be utilized to assure a meaningful and successful future. Person-centered planning can be used to plan a variety of transitions including post-school life, entry to a new school or grade, or any other next step target.

Cancellation: You can cancel your own registration for an event before the cancellation deadline. (Please check the event information for specific cancellation details.) If the event has a fee, refunds are possible only if cancellation is prior to the deadline. If you do not attend and do not cancel prior to an event, you are still responsible for payment and will be billed.

Special Accommodations: Please alert BrightWorks 2-3 weeks prior to the workshop/event if you need special accommodations, including sign language interpreters. (BrightWorks requires a notice of 2 business days to cancel a sign language interpreter. If you fail to cancel, we reserve the right to bill your school/district for this expense.) Update your profile as needed. Special accommodations are not included with each registration, but are stored in your profile until you make changes.
