Toolkits

NTACT hosts "toolkits" of resources on a variety of topics, related to secondary education and services for students with disabilities and the capacity building associated with improving such education and services. These toolkits provide an overview and then step-by-step guidance and resources on the specific topic. In this section you'll find resources on content such as competitive integrated employment, or transition assessment; as well as strategies such as planning and implementing evaluation of your work, or hosting a transition fair. Take a look!

VIEW ALL TOOLKITS

Competitive Integrated Employment

A dynamic toolkit of guidance and resources, providing a framework to assist State and local teams in collaboratively implementing transition services to improve post school employment outcomes for students with disabilities.

VIEW RESOURCES

Transition Assessment

Now in its fourth edition, the toolkit overviews the purposes and process of transition assessment and provides guidance for practitioners in selecting and using formal and informal assessments to help students and families plan for their future after high school.

Transition Institute

U.S. Department of Education Daily Digest Bulletin

Today, we’re excited to roll out the newly updated and expanded College Scorecard, a tool that provides students more information than ever before as they make decisions about the next steps in their lifelong learning journeys.

We expanded the new College Scorecard to include potential debt and earnings information based on what a student wants to study (including 2-year programs, 4-year degrees, certificate programs and graduate programs), graduation rates, and even apprenticeships. Using College Scorecard’s comparison tool, you can compare up to ten different school options and see how they stack up.

Check out this video to see the newly updated features to College Scorecard:

With more comprehensive information and expanded comparison tools, College Scorecard is a great resource for any student to find the right fit!

Skills Taught with Effective Practices

An effective practice (i.e., evidence-based, research-based, or promising) is a teaching method used to teach a specific skill that has been shown to be effective based on high-quality research (Cook, Tankersly, & Landrum, 2009; Odom, Brantlinger, Gersten, Horner, Thompson, & Harris, 2005).

Webinar Series: CTE for Students with Disabilities

This webinar series has received a very positive response. There is a 500-person limit in our webinars. If you are unable to login to the webinar, a recording will be posted at this same location within a few days. We will also post any relevant handouts that are shared during the webinar, as well. Thank you for your patience. 

Secondary CTE has long been a viable pathway for developing the skills of students with disabilities (SWD) and preparing them for the future. Changes in Perkins V and an increasing emphasis on college and career readiness for all students are bringing the needs of SWD to the forefront of the CTE conversation. This five-part webinar series will take a deep dive into programs, practices and partnerships among CTE and special education practitioners that support SWD in CTE. Each webinar will last 90 minutes, including Q & A, and will be available for later viewing here at https://transitionta.org/events-details.

This series is a collaboration among Penn State University’s Workforce Education program, the National Technical Assistance Center on Transition (NTACT) and ACTE.
