Learning Modules
The CT State Department of Education created this module to
help parents and families understand the Individualized
Education Program (IEP), the Planning and Placement Team
Meeting Process, and the new forms being used as of July
2022. The module can be completed at your own pace as it
allows you to pause and take notes. As a result, you will
learn how to prepare for your child's PPT meeting, how to
assist in the development/revision of your child's IEP,
help you understand how to read and understand the IEP,
and how to identify the key elements and sections of your
child's IEP.
