TRANSITION FROM SCHOOL TO ADULT LIFE FOR STUDENTS WITH DISABILITIES
Welcome to the Transition Page of the NDE Office of Special Education. This page is designed to provide information and resources for all stakeholders involved in assisting students with disabilities as they prepare to transition from school to adult living. This page will provide critical information regarding the transition process, to include requirements and mandates as well as best practices in the field of transition.
We will continually update this page with relevant information, and hope students, parents, educators, and agency personnel will find this information helpful as they engage in the transition process.
Again, we welcome you to this site and encourage you to visit often.
If you have any questions regarding transition from school to adult life, please contact:
