Transition Assessments

Educators and families will find formal and informal assessments designed to support transition-aged youth as they work toward life experiences beyond high school. These resources include general assessments for educators, families, and students; assessments for post-secondary employment, college, and independent living; and assessments for health and medical concerns.

Transition TN Assessment Database

TransitionTN has developed this database to help you locate relevant tools to inform transition planning. They’ve already gathered more than 100 assessments, searchable by the transition domains they address, the areas in which they focus, the approaches they use, the disabilities for which they were designed, the languages in which they are available, the persons who complete them, and the cost. You are required to register for a free account in order to access the database. After you sign up, go to the resources tab and click on the assessment database.
