Transition from Part C to Part B

Most recent Annual Record Reviews indicate that Virginia has some work to do in order to improve transition practices to meet OSEP compliance. Take a look at the compliance data for local systems:

  • 45% of the local systems were out of compliance with transition steps (Indicator 8A)
  • 35% out of compliance for notification of local education agency and state department of education (Indicator 8B)
  • 25% out of compliance for transition conferences (Indicator 8C)
  • 10% remain out of compliance with transition steps and services, 13% remain out of compliance with notification and 5% remain out of compliance with conferences. 
If you and your system need some guidance and information on transition practices, check out:

Talks on Tuesdays (ToTs) are one-hour webinars designed to provide free online training opportunities related to important topics in early intervention. Topics chosen for the Talks on Tuesdays webinar series are based on feedback from EI practitioners about what they need to know more about! ToTs are held on the first Tuesday of the month from 12:00-1:00PM.
