Abstract

This paper examined solution-focused career transition strategies for students with autism spectrum disorders (SASD). The data were gathered using a quantitative cross-sectional design among teachers and parents of SASD. The results demonstrated a great similarity in the perceptions of the stakeholders in all strategy dimensions, and strengths and exceptions were the most strongly supported in the survey. Meanwhile, a future-focused vision was comparatively less highlighted. There were no significant differences between genders, types of participants, or residential area, which means that there is a common perception landscape that is influenced by structural limitations as opposed to personal traits. When viewed through the lens of Hephapreneurship, the findings emphasise the position of capability, meaning-making, and context-responsive pathways for career transition among SASD. This chapter presents a theoretically combined and contextually based framework for enhancing inclusive career transition practices for SASD in Nigeria.
