AbstractEducation transition happens several times during an individual’s educational career. The final and sometimes most challenging transition for individuals with ASD can be transitioning out of the K-12 system and into higher education. The protection laws change, the expectations change, the class environment changes, and the need for independence increases.

Training will include documentation processes, accommodation differences, disclosure, and support strategies.
