Diversity Sensitive Disability Evaluations

This course stems from my work in creating guidance for the NYS-DOE on culturally and linguistically appropriate disability evaluations and is now updated with additional information, research and field recommendations.

Really understand what difference versus disability means:

Part 1

Learn about the SES, cultural, and linguistic considerations to take into account for accurate referrals and unbiased disability evaluations.

Understand disproportionality and psychometric mismatch. Get tips on updating your MTSS/RtI to be diversity sensitive.

Part 2

Learn about the various tools available for unbiased disability evaluations, including long term and short term dynamic assessments. Get more tips on updating your MTSS/RtI to be diversity sensitive.

Part 3

Join the follow up discussion and get access to a variety of free resources to begin implementation.

Participants may also receive CTLE and/or CEUs by following the instructions at the end of the course.
