Past Events and Recordings

Since the COVID-19 pandemic, state teams in the IDC-PBIS Discipline Partnership have grappled with increases in school discipline rates, including discipline that results in missed instructional time for students. Join us from 3:00–4:00 p.m. ET on Thursday, March 16 to discuss strategies, resources, and some personal experiences of our state presenters that can help strengthen the effective use of data-driven problem-solving teams to better understand the root causes of challenging behavior and to reduce the need for and reliance on exclusionary discipline.

Attention, Part B Data Managers and EDFacts Coordinators: IDC cordially invites you to join a new Peer–to–Peer Exchange that will offer time and space for you to converse and collaborate about the ways EDFacts modernization impacts your roles as you work together to improve IDEA data quality. Our first meeting will be held March 9 from 2:00-3:00 p.m. ET.

Each year at the CEC Convention & Expo, thousands of special education professionals from around the world come together to learn, share, grow, and connect. With hundreds of sessions on just about every topic in the field, the CEC Convention & Expo highlights research, tips, and strategies you can apply to supporting students with disabilities and gifts and talents. 

How do states collect and report 618 data, and where do those data show up in the SPP/APR? Glad you asked. In this informative webinar event from IDC, we covered all of this and more, including the life cycle of the 618 data that feed into the SPP/APR, 618 data sources, and how timelines affect stakeholder activities.

By popular demand, IDC is proud to offer this encore performance of a presentation from our recent SPP/APR Summit. Do you struggle to communicate information in the SPP/APR to stakeholders and local education agencies (LEAs)? Do you find it challenging to explain the value of this mammoth federal report and its diverse components? If so, you’re not alone!

The Department of Education would like you to save the date for an upcoming webinar that will provide an update on EDFactsmodernization efforts. Scheduled for Wednesday, December 14, 2022, from 1:00 to 3:00 p.m. ET, the event will deliver a presentation on Common Education Data Standards (CEDS) and display the new data quality application, EDPass, to attendees.

Do you have SPP/APR preparation questions? If so, you're in luck. Come to IDC’s Informal Drop-In: SPP/APR Q&A for answers. You will have an opportunity to ask your questions and hear questions posed by other states. Join us on December 6, 2022, from 3:00 PM to 4:00 PM ET.
