Indicator 14 concerns itself with the outcomes that youth with disabilities achieve once they exit high school. It reads:
_________________________________
Percent of youth who are no longer in secondary school, had IEPs in effect at the time they left school, and were:
A. Enrolled in higher education within one year of leaving high school.
B. Enrolled in higher education or competitively employed within one year of leaving high school.
C. Enrolled in higher education or in some other postsecondary education or training program; or competitively employed or in some other employment within one year of leaving high school. [20 U.S.C. 1416(a)(3)(B)]

Resources to Support Improved Postschool Outcomes
Tools, and more tools.
Is your state trying to develop strategies for collecting and using data to improve secondary, transition, and post-secondary outcomes for youth with disabilities? Does your state need technical assistance to improve systems for postschool outcome data collection and use? If you answered yes to any of these questions, you may wish to visit the National Post School Outcomes Center, which offers quite an array of tools for calculating and reporting this Indicator.
