A Note About IDEA

The last revision of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act of 2004 was in July 2005. Wrightslaw programs focus on IDEA 2004 and federal and state regulations.

Programs 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 the recent Supreme Court decisions and the status of any pending U.S. Supreme Court cases, and how these decisions are likely to affect you.

Revised: 1/20/2012
