Transitions to Post Secondary Learning

Features eight real-life high school students with specific learning disabilities and/or ADHD who have made successful transitions into a college, university, or vocational institute. They openly discuss the challenges they have faced and how they have attained success through self-advocacy and positive self-efficacy beliefs. This program is being implemented by general and special education teachers, learning assistance staff, and school counselors to facilitate students’ transitions to postsecondary learning.
Students gain greater confidence, become effective self-advocates, and learn how to plan for their academic future.
