Summary of the Webinar

It’s time to plan for “Summer School!” Our so-called summer lull is a great time for Parent Center staff to focus on their own professional development, training needs, and hot topics. The IEP is ever a hot topic and an especially important one for staff to know backwards and forwards. Do you have new staff onboard who could benefit from an indepth and authoritative look at the IEP process? Want to refresh your own knowledge? And how about the families you serve? This webinar spotlights training materials on the IEP you can use to learn or train others.
