This month is about Individualized Educational Plan (IEP) Building Blocks. This informative webinar will focus on essential strategies for creating IEP goals that support the long-term success of each child, both academically and in life skills. You will learn five key questions to ask yourself and the IEP team to determine whether the proposed goals truly meet the child’s needs for the future. You’ll also learn how to set clear objectives that serve as stepping stones towards those goals, ensuring that progress is measurable and meaningful. Learn how to determine accountability for achieving the established goals and objectives. By the end of the session, participants will have a solid framework for building personalized, future-focused IEPs that give students the best possible chance for growth and achievement.
