Project Description:
The Special Education Law for Educators Project is funded by the Washington Education Association (WEA) to provide educational staff with information addressing their responsibilities towards special education students. Courses offered during the year include Legal Issues in Serving Students with Special Health Care Needs in the School Setting, Assistive Technology for Educators, and Community-based Instruction: An Overview of the Adults Service System, Working with Students with Mental Health Concerns, and Transition for Special Education Students. These online courses provide both continuing education credits (clock hours) and optional academic credits. In addition, the project produces the Special Education Law Quarterly, a web-based bulletin on current legal topics. A Special Education Law Seminar Series has been added to the activities and consists of six to eight presentations held throughout the academic year by professionals in the special education field for UCEDD faculty and students.
