What’s an NSTTAC? National Secondary Transition Technical Assistance Center The TA&D Center for secondary transition funded by USDOE , OSEP (1/1/06-12/31/11)
It is pronounced…. • So altogether it is...NSTACK N(like the letter “N”) STTAC = STACK (like a “stack” of books)
More practice…. • Is it NSTACK? • One last time, say NSTTAC! One more time…What’s this say? NSTTAC Is it niztec? Is it niztack? Is it neckstack?
NSTTAC’s Goals are to: Assist State Education Agencies with collecting and using SPP Indicator 13 data (mostly UNC Charlotte) Generate knowledge that provides an evidence based foundation for secondary transition practices (UNC Charlotte) Build capacity of states and local educational agencies to implement effective secondary transition services (Paula Kohler, Western Michigan University) Disseminate information to state personnel, practitioners, researchers, parents, and students regarding effective secondary transition services (Larry Kortering, Appalachian State University)
