College is an opportunity for enormous growth in the lives of all students. Setting and working toward meaningful personal goals is one way to maximize those opportunities for growth. College programs for students with intellectual disability may struggle to address the independent living skills component of their comprehensive transition program without creating specialized, segregated courses. The College and Career Learning Model (CCLM) provides programs with a framework for students to attend college and gain many critical college and career skills without segregated courses. The framework outlines how students can: (1) set goals; (2) choose the college, career, and community living skills they need and are interested in; (3) choose authentic, skill-building experiences to work toward their goals; and (4) have the planning and mentor support to facilitate the process.
