On-Line Teacher Training Courses
The Special Education Unit is excited to announce a series of courses pertaining to Special Education processes, procedures, and IDEA compliance. These courses will replace the facilitated course: IEP Special Education Process – Referral to Graduation and New Teacher Training courses of the past. These courses will have open, year-round enrollment and will be self-paced. The first two courses, Introduction to Special Education and Interventions, Referrals, Evaluations and Eligibility will be available on the HUB Mid-September 2022. Subsequent courses focus on the IEP processes and are currently in the creation phase. Look for them to be available on the HUB later this fall.
