**Este módulo está disponible en español: El Equipo del IEP: ¿Quién es un miembro?
The title of this module says it all. The IEP Team: Who's a Member? looks, person by person, at the membership of the team of individuals that IDEA requires be involved in developing a child's individualized education program (IEP).
The module is available in English and Spanish, as you'll see below. It includes:
- a slideshow presentation;
- a Trainer's Guide; and
- handouts for participants.
Please help yourself below, and download the components you need to learn on your own and/or to train others regarding who's a member of the IEP Team.
Component #1: The Slideshows | Las Diapositivas
The 15 slides in this presentation will help you frame training in English or Spanish on who's involved in the IEP Team and what each might contribute.
Need tips for downloading and using slideshows?
Component #2: Trainer's Guide | Guía para Entrenadores
There are 2 guides, an English and a Spanish, designed to show trainers how each slide operates (e.g., what clicks to make to move through the slide's content).
The English guide is where you'll find the full explanation of each slide's content. It also offers much additional info so that trainers can adapt training sessions to a length or detail suitable to the given audience.
The Spanish guide only shows how the slides operate, with thumbnail pictures of each slide. If you're a trainer in Spanish, you'll also want the English guide for its detailed content and supporting suggestions.

Note about the Spanish Translations:
In preparing the handouts in Spanish, NICHCY has chosen to use a certain vocabulary set for the terminology most frequently used in IDEA. IDEA itself is extremely and purposefully consistent about its terminology, and we felt it critical to do the same in Spanish. However, we fully recognize that there are many ways to say the same thing, and Spanish is rich with alternatives from country to country, region to region. So we've also prepared a glossary of the terminology used in IDEA, how we've rendered that terminology in Spanish, and other ways of rendering it that families may also hear. Share this with participants as you see fit or use it to guide your own translations. The glossary of terminology is available in two formats, PDF and Word:
There! You're all set to go for Module 12. Please remember that these materials are designed to be a thorough and authoritative source of info on the IEP Team required by IDEA 2004. That's why they are so detailed. As a trainer, you are free to adapt the info we've offered to serve the purposes and needs of your audiences and the amount of time you have to spend with them.
