Training and Consultation Pillars
Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) requires continued training and consultation to assure that all personnel necessary to carry out the purposes of the act are appropriately and adequately trained. Training and Consultation (TaC) consultants provide training and technical assistance to school districts and public charter schools. The following initiatives are part of the Intermediate Unit 1 School Age Special Education Plan:

- Assist local school districts in developing training activities and specific support services for including students with disabilities in regular education classrooms
