Community-Based Instruction programs prepare students to become successful adults.
These programs strive to help students achieve success in four areas of post-secondary training, including:
- Employment
- Community living
- Recreation
- Leisure
When students are between 16 and 21 years old, numerous vocational opportunities exist depending upon their skills, needs and behavior. Students are provided job opportunities based on an assessment that evaluates their pre-vocational activities, job shadowing experiences, vocational exploration and competitive employment history.
Transition coordinators work with classroom teachers, vocational specialists, and job coaches to coordinate a student's academic studies, vocational training and career exploration.
