Abstract
Twice exceptional (2E) students are those with two different exceptionalities: an extraordinary gift or talent and a disability. The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA, 2004) requires individualized transition planning for students with disabilities – including 2E students who qualify for special education services. To prepare for post-secondary education, employment, and independent living skills, this chapter introduces transition services based on the Taxonomy for Transition Programming 2.0 (Kohler et al., 2016) model and assists educators in implementing transition services for twice-exceptional students with disabilities. This chapter also includes recommendations on how to a) coordinate across internal and external resources and services, b) include families and students in the transition process, and c) create a talent development plan within or in addition to an IEP.
