Pre-Employment Transition Services Webinar

You are invited to a Pre-Employment Transition Services Webinar!

When: Apr 28, 2020 03:00 PM Central Time (US and Canada)

Join this webinar to learn about free online training and education opportunities for students (ages 14-22) to increase post-secondary education and/or employment outcomes. Pre-Employment Transition Services (Pre-ETS) can support Individual Career Academic Program (ICAP) activities and supplement transition services! Learn how Pre-ETS specialists can help your students and their families by providing one on one and small group support to students in creative and meaningful ways. Pre-ETS specialists and special education teachers will share how they have collaborated to make these opportunities available for students.

Please email Lori Chesnut at lori.chesnut@sde.ok.gov if you have questions.


Leverage the Power of Community

We invite you to join the Special Education Distance Learning Community, a place to come together to trade stories, ask questions, and connect through shared experiences. Margaret Wheatley wrote, “There is no power for change greater than a community discovering what it cares about.”

This community of educators is also an outlet for sharing and acquiring adapted lessons and materials. By creating a depository of ideas, together, we can do more. The sharing form can be accessed at the Distance Learning Community Sharing Form (click here). Distance Learning Community Spreadsheet (Material Access)

We have been given a chance to see our students in a new light, and better connect with families knowing that the school year will not unfold as planned, all curricular goals will not be met, and expectations will be viewed with a new perspective. Our next Distance Learning Community connection will focus on supporting students with the most significant cognitive disabilities during distance learning.
