Transition to Postsecondary Education: A Call for Evidence-Based Practice
Shaw, Stan F.; Dukes, Lyman L., III
Career Development and Transition for Exceptional Individuals, v36 n1 p51-57 May 2013
Transition policy and programs have primarily focused on preparing students with disabilities for employment. Public policy over the last three decades has gradually broadened to include increasing emphasis on transition to postsecondary education. To date, the literature has primarily addressed matters related to demographics, legislation and policy, and the differences in expectations between secondary and postsecondary education. The authors call upon the field to set a transition research agenda resulting in evidence-based practices that will support the postsecondary educational goals of all students with disabilities.
