This training manual was
developed to accompany a two-day workshop on dispute resolution in
special education. Our workshops are created for both parents and
educators, and are intended to foster collaboration, cooperation and
conversation. Accordingly, our intent has been to produce training
materials that are easily readable and free of jargon, while still
working accurately within the framework of special education law.
This training manual covers roughly the same content as the
workshop. However, some aspects are dealt with more thoroughly in
this manual, and some are emphasized in the hands-on aspects of the
workshop.
We have posted this manual on the CADRE website for the use and
benefit of all. We give permission for full or partial reproduction
and dissemination, so long as proper credit is given to the authors.
