IEPs which are up to two years old are more frequently being challenged by parents and their attorneys as having failed to have been constructed in such a manner that essential services were omitted, and as such, these IEPs were flawed at the onset to such a degree that the student was denied FAPE. Petitioners then conclude that schools should be responsible for multiple sources of reimbursements to parents of such students. The presenter will examine several questions relating to this issue.

Permit free parking is available in Lots 15, Q & R, east of University Hall.
