WASHINGTON (Aug. 25, 2020) – The Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services released an updated version of its transition guide to postsecondary education and employment for students and youth with disabilities.

OSERS updated the transition guide, originally released in January 2017 and updated in May 2017, to add information about dual enrollment and the Achieving a Better Life Experience (ABLE) Act of 2014.

“We hope this transition guide will help students and youth with disabilities and their families to better understand how the state education agencies, the local education agencies and the vocation rehabilitation agencies work together to facilitate improved outcomes for students and youth with disabilities,” wrote Mark Schultz, Delegated the duties of the Assistant Secretary for Special Education and Rehabilitative Services, in the transition guide’s preface.
