Purpose: The purpose of this SOP is to provide guidance on the administration of PreEmployment Transition Services (Pre-ETS) by the Department on Disability Services (DDS), DC Rehabilitation Services Administration (DCRSA)  \nII. Responsible Staff: Vocational Rehabilitation (VR) specialist, VR Supervisor, Program Manager, Rehabilitation Assistant (RA), Project Manager, DDS Operations.  \nIII. Pre-ETS Requirements  \nA. Pre-ETS are provided to persons who meet the definition of student with a disability.  \nA student with a disability is a person who: (1) is in an educational program; (2) is 14 to  \n22 years of age; and (3) is eligible for and is receiving special education or related services under Part B of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), or is a person with a disability for purposes of section 504 of IDEA.  \nB. DCRSA shall reserve 15% of its federal funds for purposes of coordinating and providing the required Pre-ETS activities. The primary purpose of Pre-ETS is to help students begin to identify career interests and to learn skills in preparation for transition to competitive integrated employment and/or post-secondary education. DCRSA shall make every effort to ensure the District-wide availability of the following services:  \n1. Job exploration counseling,  \n2. Work-based learning experiences,  \n3. Counseling on opportunities for enrollment in comprehensive transition or postsecondary educational programs at institutions of higher education,  \n4. Workplace readiness training, and  \n5. Instruction in self-advocacy.  \nC. Process for Determining Availability of Reserved Funds for Authorized Services  \n1. DCRSA will determine the total number of “students with disabilities” in the State which includes those students eligible for the VR program as well as those students with disabilities “potentially eligible” for the VR program. The number of students with disabilities is provided to DCRSA by the State Education Agency.  \n2. DCRSA will ensure all students with disabilities and their families are made aware of the availability of pre-employment transition services to determine the number of students with disabilities in the State that need required and pre-employment transition coordination activities. DCRSA will document the basis for any reduction in the number of students with disabilities the agency must make required preemployment transition services available to based on need. Any reductions based on a determination that the provision of required pre-employment transition services activities is not needed must be clearly supported by reliable data.  \n3. DCRSA will calculate the cost for the provision of the “required” and “preemployment transition coordination” activities. DCRSA will use the average per student cost to the VR program for the provision of the “required” and “preemployment transition coordination” activities. The cost calculation should include, but is not limited to –  \na. All non-administrative costs for required pre-employment transition services activities provided or arranged by VR staff;  \nb. Costs for the provision of “required” and “pre-employment transition coordination” activities;  \nc. Costs for the provision of “required” activities through Memoranda of Understanding (MOUs) . It is important to differentiate the cost for preemployment transition services from other VR services, including tran","cbCaiia5Ii2wi8d9","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiia5Ii2wi8d9","pdf",224019,"English","# Purpose\n## Responsible Staff\n## Pre-ETS Requirements\n## Process for Determining Availability of Reserved Funds for Authorized Services","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of this SOP?\",\"answer\":\"It provides guidance for administering Pre-Employment Transition Services (Pre-ETS) and internal controls related to these services.\"},{\"question\":\"Who is eligible for Pre-ETS under this SOP?\",\"answer\":\"Pre-ETS is provided to persons who meet the definition of a student with a disability, including those in an educational program aged 14–22 who are eligible for and receiving special education or related services under IDEA Part B or meet the disability definition under section 504 of IDEA.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the SOP determine whether reserved funds are sufficient for required activities?\",\"answer\":\"It calculates the number of students who need required activities, estimates average per-student costs for required and coordination activities, reserves the necessary amount, and compares that reserve against the VR funds that must be reserved to confirm availability for all students needing services.\"}]","Administration of Pre-Employment Transition Services and Internal Controls - SOP 2023-RSA-SOP002 - Effective July 3, 2023 | PDF",1789330896]
