IEL Releases New Report on Individualized Learning Plans

The IEL-led National Collaborative on Workforce and Disability for Youth eleased its latest publication on the use of individualized learning plans based on six years of research and technical assistance across the country.

The IEL-led National Collaborative on Workforce and Disability for Youth (NCWD/Youth) released its latest publication on the use of individualized learning plans. The report, entitled Use of Individualized Learning Plans: A Promising Practice for Driving College and Career Readiness Efforts: Findings and Recommendations from a Multi-Method, Multi-Study Effort, summarizes NCDW/Youth’s findings and recommendations of ILP research and technical assistance activities over a six-year period.

An ILP is a planning document for secondary students that maps out a student’s career interests, aptitudes, and courses to achieve college and career goals. Thirty-eight states and the District of Columbia use ILPs as part of their college and career readiness strategies.

Housed at IEL, NCWD/Youth is a technical assistance center funded by the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Disability Employment Policy.
