IEP meetings can get complicated quickly. This session will give principals and special education leaders practical strategies for confidently serving as an IEP facilitator or district representative. We’ll tackle the compliance issues you need to be watching for, how to navigate tough conversations and disagreement, when to slow things down or adjourn, and how to keep the meeting student-focused without losing sight of procedural requirements. We’ll also dig into the issues we most often see behind state complaints and what teams can do differently to avoid them. Expect real-world scenarios, practical strategies, and plenty of “What do I do when...?” discussion.
