  • in environments and activities where the student is at his or her best. 
  • in order to discover who the person is rather than what he or she wants to do. 
  • and utilizes existing information instead of information developed through typical evaluations. 
Discovery as a Transition Assessment
This process uses interviews and observations to uncover the unique contributions, skills, and interests that a student can bring to a work experience and answers the questions: 
  • Who is this student? 
  • What contributions can the student make? 
  • Where and when the student is at his or her best?
