Make It Meaningful Video Modules
The ten modules entitled, "Making it Meaningful" address vocational assessments for individuals who are Deaf with additional transition needs. They are designed to provide the audience with a "101" on assessment considerations, strategies for obtaining an appropriate assessment, looking at an assessment with a critical eye and follow up on assessment recommendations. These modules can be used by individuals for personal knowledge or by an administrator as a formal professional development series. CEU and CRC credits will be made available through ESC 11 for those seeking them. Interested parties should go through ESC 11 to access the modules for professional development credit to be earned.
