Transition assessments are required annually to develop and update transition plans. There are many assessments available and we hope you will take time to research and review what is out there. It's important to choose assessments that are appropriate for your student and that will provide the information the team needs to establish meaningful goals the student can work toward achieving! Remember that assessments should be provided on-going and can be formal or informal. Assessments can take different forms (questionnaires, documented observations, etc.), but whatever form, make sure the results are accessible and that you have documented the assessment in the transition assessment section in the secondary transition IEP. So, take a look at a list of some transition assessments and then explore some of the tools that can assist you in the transition assessment process, like this

Authentic Assessments (★) - Use these forms to gather important information based on transition activities and services that go with these forms or use these forms as a way to assess a student's interests, needs, preferences and strengths. These forms can help students, teachers, and family members obtain information on activities within their transition plan that can enhance future programming, as well as provide evidence that the activities have taken place.

Assessments for Parents

Often parents have information that can be included in a transition plan, making it more meaningful. If you are a parent, consider reviewing these simple, yet important tools, and providing the information to your child's teacher.

(★)-This is a generic questionnaire from Ross-Pike Educational Service District in Ohio ( Parent Questionnaire for Transition Planning (with cover letter) www.rpesd.org ) that is given to parents of students with a wide range of educational needs. The information included can assist in making educational plans which focus on your child's post-school goals.

MADISON (WKOW) -- Madison Metro is changing how riders can pay for their bus trip.

The new fare system will be account-based and have automatic fare capping. This means there is no need to buy passes or multi-ride cards in advance and riders will always get the best deal.

Fare readers will be be installed at every bus' door, which will help speed up boarding speeds.

But that doesn't mean tickets are going away -- riders can still buy single ride tickets or day passes at platform kiosks. They can also use cash at kiosks, but buses won't be accepting cash.

Riders can get a Fast Fare Card free through 2024 at the Metro's main office, online or through a sales outlet like Kwik Trip or Walgreens). Money can be added online, at the seller or at a kiosk.

If a rider's account is empty, they can get one more ride before they need to reload their card.

Madison Metro prices won't increase.

The new system is expected to launch before Fall 2024.
You can view a presentation about the new far system online.

Postsecondary Transition Plan (PTP) Compliance

" The IEP must include appropriate measurable postsecondary goals based upon age-appropriate transition assessments related to training, education, employment, and where appropriate, independent living skills."

The Postsecondary Transition Plan (PTP) is a web-based application used to complete and document the transition planning process at the IEP meeting. In Wisconsin it is required to start this process for all students with disabilities ages 14 and older. When creating the student's PTP, there is a question specifically regarding transition assessments that must be answered. If a transition assessment is not completed at the time of the annual IEP meeting, the IEP team will not be able to move forward with the student's postsecondary transition planning.
