Welcome to the 2024-2025 IEP Writing Course!

This is a course designed to give you detailed information about the district practices and expectations for writing IEPs. Much of what is written in this course is intended for your knowledge and understanding. There will be times that you will experience something that is not covered in this course and you are encouraged to reach out to your special education leadership team.

For the 24-25 school year, each case manager (special education teacher or SLP) will be required to take this course before they can "approve" their own IEPs. There are 15 modules that will take you through different parts of the IEP and cover behavioral health topics. This course will also satisfy your 10 clock hours of professional development for the Special Education and Behavioral Health hours required to renew your license.

You will find all of the course content by clicking on the Modules Tab on the left.

Note that the district does not publish a Guidance Manual, but we rely on the guidance manuals provided by CDE.
