Abstract
We describe a model that can be used as a framework to guide decision-making about the use of technology to facilitate the development of competencies that people with disabilities need in order to make a successful transition from school to various adult environments. Legal mandates associated with the provision of transition services and technology are described. Types of technology and the technology continuum are explained. Examples of technology applications to facilitate competencies in seven areas of human function that cut across different adult environments are provided. Several on-line sources of information about technology that can be used to support competencies needed for successful transition are provided. Implications are drawn for the use of the framework by those involved in planning and delivering transition services.
