Please join Special Education experts, Allan Blume, Jan Hollenbeck and Laurel Peltier for the CES annual IEP Summit. This summit is a conference for special educators, team leaders, administrators and others who participate in the IEP team process. All participants will receive a copy of the presenters’ newly released book (October 2025), A Practical Guide to Massachusetts Special Education Regulations and Legal Decisions at no additional cost.

The conference will include:

  • How to use this book to support shared understanding of all members of the IEP team
  • A Deep Dive into Effective Progress in the General Curriculum: What is this? How do we focus our work as an IEP team on this outcome?
  • Understanding and documenting the throughline from the vision, through the present levels, to the goals & services so that our plans identify data and adaptations that show effective progress is happening!

This event provides a 6 hour certificate of attendance. There will be an option for completing an additional assignment for 10 Special Ed PDP's.
