  • 2024 Florida Postsecondary Education Program Planning Institute

    July 8, 2024 - July 10, 2024

    Hyatt Regency Grand Cypress Resort

    The purpose of this FLPEPPI is to increase understanding of resources available for and facilitate the planning and implementation of Florida Postsecondary Comprehensive Transition Programs (FPCTP) for students with intellectual disabilities in all types of postsecondary education institutions: universities, state and community colleges, and career tech centers/ technical colleges.


    The institute will provide content knowledge for developing or enhancing these programs, facilitate planning time for interdisciplinary postsecondary education teams, and provide opportunities to network with approved FPCTP leaders and others with expertise in this area.


    This is a team-focused event for postsecondary education program planning teams. These teams should include higher education faculty and staff, disability service providers, special population coordinators, K-12 transition staff, parents, students, and other relevant stakeholders. A critical feature of the FLPEPPI is providing teams with facilitated meeting times to develop an FPCTP or enhance their current program’s performance using our online Strategic Planning Tool – Postsecondary component.


    Registration Closes on June 14.
