Attendees will leave with an understanding of some of the differences regarding how to accommodate people who are deaf in contrast to
those who are hard of hearing.
This forum will focus on IDEA as it applies to children who are deaf or hard of hearing and will touch on some of the most important changes within the IDEA 2004. In addition, participants will learn how to write measurable IEP goals. There will be a focus on answering audience questions related to this law and the goal of achieving a free and appropriate public education for these students.
