Introduction

The EasyIEPTM Step-By-Step Help was designed to allow you to view the creation of an IEP in both a process and individual step format.

The process (or Initial Phase) is designed to take you from the entering of student personal information to the printing of an IEP.  Beginning with "Installing Adobe Acrobat Reader" it covers every aspect of IEP information and data entry.

You may also access any individual step you may need to review by clicking on any of the links in the Table of Contents.

You may also learn and/or review how to edit (change, amend, add, update) IEP information through the steps of the Edit Phase.

The entire Initial Phase can also be printed out or reviewed in text format (without graphics) by using the link provided in the "How to do an IEP" section of this page..




Explanation of the Initial and Edit Phases

The EasyIEPTM Step-By-Step Help is arranged in two basic sections or phases:

The Initial Phase and The Edit Phase

The Initial Phase takes you through the entire IEP making process.  Beginning with the downloading of Adobe Acrobat Reader (to allow the viewing and printing of documents in the final stage), it takes you through the entire Student Menu Bar - one section at a time - until all of the selected student's IEP information is entered into the EasyIEPTM database.

The Edit Phase demonstrates how to add, amend, change or delete existing information in the Students Area.

The Initial Phase selections are listed first and by number.

The Edit Phase selections are listed second at the bottom of the Index Page.
