Goal writing has so many different versions, etc. In Florida, my county has a specific way of how we write goals - too much diversity among goal writing that it's confusing what to actually do.

I do think that this topic is very important; however, the perspective and input from those SLPs who actually work with adults with intellectual disabilities would have been beneficial for conveying what skills most need to be targeted at a younger age.

The goals were a bit overwhelming for me, but I really liked this presenters philosophy and the background they provided about working with the team. I would love to see another training from this presenter about what therapy itself looks like, for example, what a day of therapy looks like for them in their high school working on these functional skills.

I really appreciate Dr. Brown's focus on interdisciplinary team work with adolescents students with various abilities and disabilities. She had done a phenomenal job in assembling a process to focus on functional skills so much needed with many of those students. Not all high school graduates will be going to college. This reminds me of a Vocationally Oriented program. The word vocational has been stigmatized for no reason.Those students will be prepared. more independent and well adjusted.

This course was perfect as the topic is absolutely necessary for the population of ID and ASD students that have a moderate to severe range of functioning disability. As a practitioner who works in the schools with academic focus I LOVE the foundation to shift to this focus.
