College & Career Learning: Inside and Outside the Classroom: Promoting Growth for Students with Intellectual Disability

Presented by Dr. Katey Burke, Assistant Professor of Research, Temple University, Department of Teaching and Learning

College has the potential to be an opportunity for enormous growth in the lives of all students. How can college programs for students with intellectual disability promote this growth? By supporting students to set and work toward meaningful college and career goals and gain related experiences. During this webinar, Dr. Burke will describe and provide resources for the College and Career Learning Model (CCLM). This framework enables students and those who support them to intentionally plan for and strengthen college and career abilities, gain related experiences in the campus community, and track progress – all without separate, specialized courses.

Learning objectives:

By the end of the session, participants will be able to:
• describe the College and Career Learning Model and its five components
• detail people and resources involved in supporting students to use the CCLM
• understand how to apply the CCLM to their own lives or practice
