The Vocational Support Program of the Capital
Area Intermediate Unit provides students with opportunities that will expand
their knowledge of employment and develop corresponding skills and behaviors.
Such opportunities increase the likelihood that individuals will experience
some of the many benefits of employment in their adult lives. For a person with
disabilities, the opportunity to practice skills and behaviors in a training
environment or to enter the working world while still receiving training and
support is a building block for their future. Since secondary transition
planning is an entitlement, it is important to prepare students for employment
while they are still in school. Based on authentic assessments, CAIU vocational
staff will provide present level information to be used to determine post
secondary transition goals. Program support staff can consult with classroom
teachers and provide guided practice helping them to meet the requirements of
Indicator 13.
