(10.12) Who should participate in a transition planning meeting?

In addition to the required IEP participants and with the consent of the parents or a student who has reached the age of 18, the district is required to invite a representative of any agency that is likely to provide transition services to the IEP meeting. This should include representatives from the vocational rehabilitation agency, the regional center, community mental health, community college, and traditional private rehabilitation agencies, as appropriate. [34 C.F.R. Secs. 300.321(b)(3) & 300.324(c).] If a representative does not attend, the district should take steps to obtain the agency’s participation in the planning of any transition services.
