Participants will review the legal requirements for transition planning and learn how to use age-appropriate assessments to inform measurable postsecondary goals. The session emphasizes how to write clear, outcome-oriented goals in the areas of education/training, employment, and independent living, and how to align transition services and annual IEP goals to support those outcomes. Practical guidance, examples, and templates will be provided to strengthen the quality and compliance of ITPs, ensuring that they are student-centered, measurable, and actionable.

We will start with an overview of AAC. Then we will dive deep into three research-based techniques to support communication. First, we will discuss augmented language input. What it is and why it is essential for your students. Next, we will talk about storybook interactions and how to get the most out of them. Finally, we look at how you can help with a shared writing activity. Plenty of examples and opportunities to practice will be provided.

This training provides a comprehensive, neurodivergent affirming approach to behavior assessment, determining the need for aide support, and Behavior Intervention Plans (BIPs) writing for students with complex behavior needs. It will provide a more in-depth application for staff who already have foundational knowledge of behavior assessment and BIP writing. Participants will learn how to move beyond compliance-based models by conducting assessments that capture student voice, identify underlying needs, and develop meaningful supports. This training equips Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs), teachers, administrators, school psychologists, and related service providers with strategies to assess behavior accurately, determine when and how to provide aide support without over-reliance, and write BIPs that foster independence and opportunities for inclusion.
