A Note About IDEA Reauthorization
The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act of 2004 went into effect on July 2005. Wrightslaw programs focus on key changes in IDEA 2004. 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 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.
