Edit Phase - Editing Transition Service Information

Transition Services are those assisting services, agencies and specialty groups that should be enlisted to help guarantee the successful transition of the Special Education student into a post-secondary life.  They may be selected from an existing list or customized to fit specific needs.  To edit Transition Services for the selected student, follow the steps below.


Most fields will have an asterisk or a question mark beside them.  You may click once on these symbols to access the help for that field.  All fields with an asterisk ( * ) to the right MUST HAVE INFORMATION ENTERED before the data can be entered into the EasyIEP TM database.   All fields with a question mark ( ? ) to the right do not require information to be entered at this time, and, can be edited or updated at any time.

Accessing the Students Menu

To add information for a selected student or students, you must access the Students Menu.  This Menu will appear after you click once on the Students Button on the Main Menu Bar.  The Main Menu Bar will be at the top of the Main Page after you log-in. The words "Main Menu" will be darkened to distinguish it.

NOTE: If you have been working in another area of EasyIEP TM(i.e. Schools, School System, Users), and the Main Menu Bar is not at the top of the browser page, click once on the Main Menu Button of the existing menu bar at the top of the browser page.  This will take you to the Main Page.  The Main Menu Bar will be at the top.  Click once on the Students Button to access the Students area.
