The Local Education Agency (LEA) plays a vital role in IEP (Individualized Education Program) meetings. They bring the expertise and resources needed to make sure a student’s needs are met. LEA representatives help ensure that the school provides the right support, from specialized services to accommodations, and work with families and teachers to create a plan that helps the student succeed in the least restrictive environment. This session will support you to facilitate IEP meetings as the process leader with confidence and rooted in legally sound decision making.
