Changes to Web IEP Program on Jan. 15

Starting Jan. 15, 2015, two changes will occur with the Web IEP Program. 

1) The Extended School Year (ESY) form will be available on the IEP program when “Yes” is checked to the question, “Are Extended School Year (ESY) services required?” on tab G. The form will be available via the Forms tab. 

Users will be able to document up to four goal areas on the ESY form. The Incomplete Data Report (IDR) will require the form when “yes” is selected to the ESY question. An explanation will also be required when the question is answered “yes”. The form will be editable regardless of the IEP status (open, submitted, ready to review, validated and archived). This is similar to updating progress on graphs. 

If ESY on tab G was marked “yes” previously, the ESY form can be added via the “Forms for Active IEP” button on the IEP overview screen.  

2) Forms created on an IEP will be restorable. Currently, when a form is deleted, it is gone and cannot be retrieved. Beginning Jan. 15, users of the Web IEP will be able to contact the Web IEP Administrators (Sue Dunsmoor and Mary Keul) requesting that the deleted form be restored or permanently deleted. 

If there is a form in the recycle bin, the IDR will display a message and the count number on the tab will show a number other than “0”.  However, users will be able to mark the IEP, “Ready to Review,” and the IEP can go through the review process and be validated. 

If you have questions, please contact Misty Christensen at (800) 255-0405 ext. 11203.
