The purpose of this individualized job preparatory program is to provide specialized career education for students with significant cognitive/learning disabilities who, in addition to instructional accommodations, require modifications to the CTE program in order to meet individual interests, abilities, and learning needs. The goal is integrated competitive employment in the student’s chosen occupation. The program is individualized for each student and documented in an individualized education plan (IEP). Instruction is competency-based with integrated academic, technical, and problem-solving skills. The IPS consists of standards and benchmarks selected from one or more CTE programs to create an individualized plan of study for each student. Documentation of standards and benchmarks previously mastered should be reviewed in order to develop an individualized plan of study that further guides the student toward his or her employment goals.
