Course Description: Developing an Individualized Education Program (IEP) that truly meets a student’s needs requires more than filling out forms—it requires understanding the legal framework, team collaboration, and a commitment to meaningful outcomes. This session provides educators with a clear, practical overview of the laws that govern special education, including IDEA, Chapter 14, Section 504, and the role of FAPE. Participants will walk through each step of IEP development—from pre-referral through implementation—with a focus on compliance, defensibility, and compassion. Real-world examples, recent hearing officer decisions, and case studies will illustrate how to balance legal requirements with individualized support and family collaboration.
