The Arkansas Department of Education (ADE), Special Education will provide an opportunity for districts and co-ops to modify program approval data submitted through APSCN Cycle 4 beginning January 19, 2004 through February 2, 2004.
Also beginning January 19, 2004 and continuing through February 13, 2004 districts and co-ops will be able to respond on-line to the annual Personnel and In-service Training Needed survey. Survey responses are used to determine manpower trends in special education and to determine the potential needs for special education personnel in the future. Information provided from the In-service Training Needs survey will provide a basis for establishing state priorities for training topics and audiences as required by Public Law 105-17.
A general session for Special Education Supervisors and Early Childhood Coordinators, to include training on the use of these on-line applications, will be held in Little Rock on January 22, 2004 at this location:
