Special Education Evaluation Webinar Series
Language Proficiency & Dominance: From Data Collection to Disability Determination




This is a series of live webinars presented throughout the school year.  Recordings will not be available. Registered participants will be sent additional information 2-3 days prior to the session describing how to access the webinar.  The intended audience is special education evaluation staff.

Important Session Information:


Establishing language proficiency and dominance is not a checkbox; it is the foundation of valid bilingual evaluation decisions. In this interactive 2.5-hour webinar, participants will learn how to systematically gather, analyze, and interpret multiple data sources to determine language proficiency and dominance in culturally and linguistically diverse students. The session will address common misconceptions, frequent errors in practice, and how to avoid invalid conclusions when students appear “low in both languages.” Participants will leave with practical frameworks, examples, and tools to confidently defend their evaluation decisions.
 

Registered participants will receive the Zoom the day prior to the session.
