Unlocking Educational Benefit
Thursday March 13, 2025 2:45pm - 3:45pm PDT
Exhibit Hall D
The High-Quality IEPs Resource Leads Project has developed the HQ IEP Toolkit: Special Education Provider Edition to guide educators through the IEP process, ensuring a foundation for creating “high-quality” IEPs. This Toolkit is built on the Educational Benefit framework and focuses on five key components that unlock access and opportunities for every student. By following this framework, IEP teams can remain student-centered and design plans that are "reasonably calculated" to help students not only make progress but thrive! Join us on a walk through of the toolkit to create a clear understanding and shared purpose.
