The transition to employment is part of a long and complex process, covering all phases in a person’s life, which needs to be managed in the most appropriate way. “A good life for all”, as well as “a good job for all” are the ultimate goals of a successful overall transition process. Transition from school to employment should include the on-going participation of the young person, involvement of their family, co-ordination between all the services involved and close co-operation with the employment sector. (European Agency for Development in Special Needs Education, 2002).

An Individual Transition Plan is an instrument, a tool, in a form of a document in which the past, the present and the desired future of Young People’s Skills Support Provided by Companies 22 young people is documented. It should include information concerning the young person’s life space: family circumstances, medical history, leisure time, values and cultural background, as well as information on their education and training. It will contribute to the achievement of the following results:

To increase the young person’s chances to get a sustainable job;

To match the interests, wishes, motivations, competences, skills, attitudes and abilities of the young person with the requirements of the profession, job, working environment and companies;

To increase a young person’s autonomy, motivation, self-perception and self-confidence;

To create a win-win situation for the young person and employers.

A transition plan aims to close the gap between school and employment. An ITP provides a framework that aims to ensure an improved entry into employment. It reflects a dynamic process, involving:

The characteristics of young people (skills, abilities, competences and expectations)

The demands and requirements from the employment sector
