Under IDEA ’04, a school district can use 15% of IDEA funds for early intervening services. Generally implemented as the responsiveness-to-intervention (RtI) approach, this offers new opportunities for SLPs to be involved with at-risk students and to expand indirect and consultative services. IDEA ’04 also allows school districts the option of using students’ response to instruction to identify specific learning disabilities, resulting in changes to the way that SLPs may approach diagnostic evaluations. This session reviews the law, then explores ways for SLPs to contribute to RtI initiatives while maintaining a balanced workload.

This is a Recorded Course which requires a Windows or Mac compatible computer with speakers/headphones to view. More information available in the FAQs/Help section.
