Parent Question

When does my child get an individualized education program (IEP)?


Published: Feb. 2, 2022Updated: Mar. 17, 2022

An IEP meeting must be held within 30 calendar days after it is determined through an assessment that a child has one of the qualifying diagnoses listed in IDEA and needs special education and related services. For a detailed explanation, see our article IEP Timelines.
