AIM District Process Webinar Recording

AIM Webinar

This webinar training is designed for District Competent Authority designees, AIM District Contacts, or Coordinators assigned to oversee AIM procedures in the district. This session serves as an example to show how a district can set up their process for AIM ordering, eligibility, and delivery of AIM. The presenter is the Jefferson Parish AIM Competent Authority for that district. She addresses the tasks of the Competent Authority, responsibility of the IEP teams and procedures for requesting and reporting AIM. She also describes the use of the forms that she developed for use in Jefferson. The Jefferson model is not a state mandated model, but serves to provide a district prospective and reference. Each district/LEA is responsible for determining the process best for the size and population of students they serve.

Handouts and forms can be found on the LA AIM website at www.atanswers.com/aim - PD Tab, AIM District Process - Webinar.

Handouts and forms that will be referenced during the webinar can be downloaded from www.atanswers.com/aim.

For more information about AIM and previous AIM workshop downloads, go to www.atanswers.com/aim.
