Vocational Rehabilitation (VR)

The Learning Academy at USF is an approved vendor of the Florida Department of Vocational Rehabilitation and they may fund tuition for participation in the program.  We offer the following suggestions to assist you in this process:

  1. The sooner you are involved with VR the better.  If you are still in school and are considering the Learning Academy as a post school option, make sure a VR counselor is invited to your Transitional IEP (TIEP) meeting.
  2. Ask that your desire to apply to the Learning academy be a goal in your TIEP.
  3. If you have already graduated from high school, apply for VR services immediately.  The VR process takes time and has many steps.  You do not want your opportunity to participate in the Learning Academy to be held up because you began the VR process too late.
  4. When you meet with your VR counselor, be prepared to describe to him/her what the Learning Academy is and why you believe it is needed for you to move forward with your employment goals.
  5. Provide your VR Counselor with information about the Learning Academy if he or she is not familiar with the program.  Ask your counselor if the two of you can visit the program together to observe and meet with staff and students.
  6. Make sure that the Learning Academy is written into your Individual Plan for Employment.  That is the only way to be certain that VR will fund your participation in the Learning Academy.
