词条 | Vocational Independence Program |
释义 |
The Vocational Independence Program (VIP) at New York Institute of Technology[1] is one of only 10 postsecondary schools in the United States that is known by the U.S. Department of Education as a Comprehensive Transition and Postsecondary (CTP) program for students with an intellectual disability.[2] The VIP also offers a summer program called the Introduction to Independence (I To I)[3] which qualifies VIP as an interconnected program[3] aimed at people ages 16-22 with special needs and focuses on job training and independent living skills.[4] There is a 4th year option at VIP.[5] People ages 23 and up may still attend VIP.[5] However, they are ineligible to attend the summer program as the Introduction to Independence is a summer work-study-recreation program for students ages 16 to 22 who have moderate to severe learning differences.[3] The IQ scores of VIP students are 70-143.[5] At VIP, most students come directly from high school and most have been in special education programs.[1] References1. ^1 Vocational Independence Program - Visit Reports.
