An independent educational evaluation of the Victorian Transition Education Program was carried out by the Deakin Institute for Studies in Education, sponsored by the Victorian Transition Education Advisory Committee (TEAC). In an 18 month period, the project produced 24 case studies of exemplary transition education in schools and TAFE colleges, an interim report and a final draft report. The selection attempts to fairly represent a range of situations, client groups and educational strategies currently employed in TEAC programs in both schools and TAFE colleges. In common with all of these case studies the five examples listed below serve as a source of information, guidance and inspiration for other projects being proposed or put into operation with the Transition Program. Projects studied have been selected as potentially significant for the development and growth of transition education in general. The case studies represented in this collection are: No. 3, Winlaton Youth Training Centre Education Centre), Transition Curriculum Supervisor (Work Experience) / Barbara Cramer; No. 5, Timbercraft - An education program for unemployed youth (EPUY): Access Skills Department, Richmond TAFE College / Barbara Cramer; No. 11, Shepparton EPUY / Barbara Cramer; No. 20, Sherbrooke EPUY / Lynton Brown; and No. 24, Holmesglen College Cluster / Terry Reilly.
