Quotes from Participants:

My team and I are going to be able to write more useful IEPs.  

If we can get this course used by school partners AND VR staff on a regular basis, I think it will greatly improve transition assessment just due to the knowledge each will gain.

We will use this as a catalyst for future training/ta in Pennsylvania.
