Learner Objectives
This session will help participants…
- understand the critical role that personal finance skills play in the successful transition of individuals with autism from secondary education to early adulthood (so they will be better equipped to prioritize and support the development of personal finance skills in their practice or educational setting);
- identify targeted domains of personal finance skills crucial for fostering independence and successful transition in individuals with autism (so they can focus on strengthening specific areas that contribute to greater self-sufficiency for students during this critical period of change); and
- explore the various settings, such as controlled environments like classrooms, and natural, less-controlled environments like grocery stores and restaurants, in teaching personal finance skills to individuals with autism (so they can choose the most suitable and effective environments for maximizing learning outcomes and promoting successful transitions into early adulthood for each individual).
