Measurable goals that are directly linked to educational needs are an essential factor in developing effective Individualized Education Programs (IEPs) for students. This professional development will provide guidance in developing meaningful goals that can be monitored regularly to determine if progress is being made or if revisions are needed to a student’s educational programming. We will also introduce the Goals Progress Monitoring Wizard that will be available in the OK EdPlan System in fall 2019.
