Program Description


Payment Schedule

A portion of the speaker's fee must be prepaid. The first payment of 25% is due when the program is confirmed and the contract is signed.

A second payment of 25% is due four months in advance of the program.

The remaining 50% is due at the end of the program.

Click here to view the standard contract letter which is revised dependent upon speaker, dates, etc.

Flat Rate / All Inclusive Speaker Fee - Some organizations and some local, state, and federal agencies prefer a flat rate for speaker fee, lodging, travel, meals, etc., so that the sole expenses are the speaker and book purchase fee. We can modify your contract from the above standard one in that manner. Dependent upon the conference city, travel issues, and whether there are one or two speakers, the additional cost ranges from approximately $1,500 to $3,500.

Successful Programs

We are committed to helping you put on a successful program. After details are finalized, we will provide publicity for your event through the Wrightslaw website. We will build a page for your program and will post that page on the Wrightslaw site.

Read Pete's advice about successful programs and go to the "Conference & Marketing" page to see (and listen to a podcast ) how a Detroit organization, in ten weeks from contract to conference, sold out, two weeks in advance, with 500 attendees.

We can send targeted emails to thousands of individuals in your state and neighboring states.

Learn how you can bring a Wrightslaw program to your area.

A Note About IDEA Reauthorization

The federal regulations for the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act of 2004 went into effect in August, 2006. Wrightslaw programs explain key changes in IDEA 2004 and the regs.

In most of our training programs, we generally use Wrightslaw: Special Education Law, 2nd Edition, Wrightslaw: No Child Left Behind, and Wrightslaw: From Emotions to Advocacy, 2nd Edition.


Programs related to the law include the history of special education law, changes in the legal requirements for evaluations, reevaluations, IEPs, and IEP team meetings. Programs also include new procedural requirements in IDEA 2004 including the “Due Process Complaint Notice” and “Resolution (IEP) Session.” Participants will learn about No Child Left Behind and any recent Supreme Court decisions and status of any pending U.S. Supreme Court cases and how these decisions are likely to affect you.

Advocacy programs focus on advocacy skills, paper trails, the Letter to a Stranger, negotiation techniques, understanding test data, SMART IEPs, organization of the child's file, the Rule of Adverse Assumptions, the 5 W's+H+E and much more.
