About Wrightslaw Training Programs
Wrightslaw multimedia training programs are designed to meet the needs of parents, educators, health care providers, advocates and attorneys who represent children with disabilities regarding special education. The programs are not disability specific.
During the law programs, as Pete explains specific statutes and regulations, he'll have you make notes in the margins and inside cover of the book. In the advocacy programs, Pete and Pam will explain concepts in Wrightslaw: From Emotions to Advocacy, 2nd Edition and describe ways to improve your advocacy skills. You'll find these notes extremely helpful later.
