At the adult transition stage, successful planning must involve individual transition goal development and long-range planning. It is necessary to have a clear vision of what the student is likely to be doing after leaving or graduating from secondary school, to have IEP Transition goals and to work with other agencies to help facilitate the student’s post-secondary goals. 

Collaboration in transition planning must also involve students, parents/guardians, school personnel, district staff such as a Transition Consultant, Work Experience Facilitator, and representatives from community services providers such as post-secondary institutions, employment specialists, professionals from other ministries, etc.
