| "EFFECTIVE INDIVIDUALIZED EDUCATION PROGRAM (IEP) MEETINGS" WEB-BASED TRAINING AND DELIVERY OF REUSABLE IEP CHARTS |  |
LAUSD > Special Education > Professional Development > Effective IEP Meetings
Date: July 1, 2005
Due Date: October 30, 2005
Purpose: The "Effective Individualized Education Program (IEP) Meetings" training module located on the Division of Special Education website was developed to assist IEP Teams in conducting effective IEP meetings. The purpose of this Reference Guide is to inform Principals that all school staff members who will participate on IEP teams are required to view the training module. Certification of completion of the training module is required.
Part of conducting effective IEP meetings is keeping team members focused on a structured process. This can be facilitated by use of IEP meeting charts. One to four sets of reusable IEP charts referenced in the training are being distributed to schools. The charts are scheduled for delivery to year-round schools during July 2005 and to single track schools during August 2005.
Instructions: Staff members who will participate on IEP teams can access the "Effective Individualized Education Program (IEP) Meetings" beginning July 1, 2005.
