Is there a timeframe when the online advocacy training will resume? I see that the 3rd edition of the sped law book is published. I look forward to your reply.
Thank you for asking!
We do not have an available timeline for the Wrightslaw Special Education Law and Advocacy Training Download using the 3rd Edition of the law book. The free online Special Ed Advocate newsletter will keep you updated. https://www.wrightslaw.com/subscribe.htm
Do you do virtual trainings and do you receive a certificate when completed?
Thank you
Pete is working on a new training download using the 3rd Edition of Wrightslaw: Special Education Law.
The training using the 2nd Edition was removed from our site. The training was approved for CEUs (continuing education units) through Delta State University.

Danielle, in most cases, an organization or individual contracts with us to do the training. The sponsor is responsible for logistics (finding an appropriate venue, marketing, etc.) The sponsor decides whether to give a certificate of attendance and CEUs.
When COVID hit, sponsors began offering programs virtually, via Zoom. Now we do both types – live and Zoom.
We have considered doing Wrightslaw Training programs, probably virtual, possibly live. Wrightslaw is not an organization with members and teams. Wrightslaw is the website’s name. Our “team” is Pete, Pam, Debra and Nancy (part time bookkeeper). Pete and Pam write books and articles, prepare books for publication, do training, try to maintain the HUGE website (not successful) so we are limited in taking on new projects.
My twin granddaughters were taken off speech IEPs even though they weren’t exhibiting skills the speech therapist said they mastered. We requested a review because they’d been held back in Kindergarten, were in 2nd grade and couldn’t read. They were denied even though they fell below working memory levels. Now in 4th grade, one child reads at beginning Kindergarten level and the other at 1st grade level. If my son doesn’t have joint legal custody can he intervene to help them? What can we do?
That may depend on state rules. I suggest starting with your state disability rights project. http://www.parentcenterhub.org/find-your-center/
FYI – they never responded.
Hi Kimberly, Your son needs to consult with an attorney with experience in special education law and litigation. Most attorneys who practice special ed law have experience in domestic relations, including custody questions.
In general, consultations are an excellent way to get legal advice and a game plan about what to do and how to proceed for very little financial outlay.
When Pete did special ed consults, he said at least 80% of the people who consulted with him did NOT need an attorney. They needed help in devising a plan to resolve the presenting problem and help to plan for the future.
