Description:
This article examines the impact of physical disabilities on early career opportunities, particularly in vocational choice, the school-to-work transition, and becoming established in early career paths. Using motivation theory, the paper presents a framework for understanding how people with disabilities identify career goals, form expectancies about being able to achieve career goals, and perceive barriers to achieving those goals during early career development.

From the author: This article examines recent efforts to improve the school-to-work transition process for all students. This study examined the extent to which the instructional components and skill outcomes associated with school-to-work programs actually predict better postschool outcomes for students with and without disabilities. Findings provide general support for the school-based and work-based instructional components envisioned as part of a comprehensive school-to-work program--particularly an emphasis on academic skills, work experience while in school, and continuing support for 1 year postschool. Recommendations emphasizebuilding school-to-work programs for all students in a manner that serves each student equally well.
