<p>Welcome back to the Collaborative IEP podcast! I'm thrilled to be back after my spring break. In this episode, we continue our exploration of Section 1414 of IDEA, focusing on evaluations, eligibility determinations, individualized education programs, and educational placements. We delve into the specifics of the IEP team, its necessary members, and the complex scenarios when attendance isn't necessary or members can be excused. I also share why parents and certain specialists are critical to the process. Transitioning districts and the procedures involved, especially for military families and children aged three to five, are thoroughly discussed. Join me as I navigate through this essential section of IDEA and get ready for our next episode where we will dive into the development of the IEP.

<p>In this episode of the Collaborative IEP Podcast, I'm Ashley Barlow, your host. We continue our exploration of the IDEA, specifically focusing on Individualized Education Programs (IEPs). Starting with IDEA Part B, Section 1414, we dive into the essential components of IEPs, including present levels of academic and functional performance, writing measurable annual goals, and outlining special education and related services. We discuss the importance of goals being specific, measurable, and tailored to the child's unique needs. I also share personal anecdotes and insights on making IEPs both strength-based and goal-oriented. Join me as we break down these complex but crucial aspects of special education.
