● Wanting to get a head start on this year’s first IEP?
● Struggling to collect adequate and pertinent baseline data for your students?

Present Levels are the foundation of the IEP. In this interactive training, we will show how to use Goalbook to develop meaningful, data-driven present levels statements. We will explore the elements of effective present level statements and the information gathered from an impact of disability statement. We will then use this data to draft rigorous learning goals and discover UDL-aligned strategies to support instruction of grade-level content.
