During Part 4, participants will explore the various types of data to incorporate into a dyslexia evaluation. Participants will use qualitative and quantitative data and practice interpreting and discussing this information with Section 504 or Admission, Review, or Dismissal (ARD) Committees.
In Part 5, participants will use case studies to analyze student data and decide on the determination of dyslexia. Participants will become familiar with a framework for documenting evaluation results and will use this framework to practice reporting student data to Section 504 or Admission, Review, or Dismissal (ARD) Committees.
Due to current changes in how dyslexia will be evaluated in the future, we recommend the
following requirements for this training: Educational Diagnostician, LSSP, CALT, CALP, or
someone who has had previous training or work experience with dyslexia.
This session will be held via zoom

Note: This workshop will not cover the administration of specific tests used in the identification of dyslexia.
