this page One-day Training Programs & Seminars All About IEPs is a new Wrightslaw program (one day, 5 hours) that focuses on the legal requirements for IEPs and how to develop SMART IEPs. Participants will learn how the law about IEPs changed, the legal requirements for IEPs in IDEA 2004 and federal regulations, and significant legal cases about IEPs. In All About IEPs, you will learn how to draft SMART IEPs that are Specific, Measurable, use Action Words, are Realistic, and Time specific. You will also learn how to use an effective team approach in crafting legally sufficient IEPs. The registration fee includes two books and two CD-ROMs: Wrightslaw: All About IEPs (retail: $12.95) and Wrightslaw: From Emotions to Advocacy (retail: $19.95), the Wrightslaw CD-ROM series: The Legal Requirements of IEPs (1.25 hours) (retail $14.95) and Understanding Your Child's Test Scores (1.5 hours) (retail $14.95) for a total value of $62.80 for the two books and the two WebEx Wrightslaw CD-ROM training series. Note: The All About IEPs program is not about how to get schools to comply with the law. The one-day Special Education Law & Advocacy program addresses IEP compliance issues.
