Ensuring Accountability in the IEP ... and What to Do if Things Go Wrong

The IEP is the foundation on which your child’s educational progress is based; a weak IEP can result in minimal progress while a strong, specific, measurable IEP gives students, parents, and school staff the support and direction necessary for meaningful progress throughout the year.


In this workshop, participants will learn the process, components and legal requirements of effective IEPs, including how to develop individualized, measurable goals and how to monitor progress. We will also discuss communication strategies and procedural safeguards such as mediation, complaints, and due process hearings to resolve conflicts.


Our speaker Julie Michaels Keegan, Esq. is a special education attorney who has devoted her practice to ensuring that children receive a high quality, appropriate education.   Workshop Details:
