  1. Bethany – WESTERN BROWN LOCAL (verified owner)

    It met my needs.

  2. Teri – FAYETTEVILLE-PERRY LOCAL (verified owner)

    The course was very clear about helping me understand that each goal must be individualized and meaningful to meet the needs of each child.

  3. Meshell – FAYETTEVILLE-PERRY LOCAL (verified owner)

    very informative

  4. Allyson – WESTERN BROWN LOCAL (verified owner)

    Good overview of WEPs, although I am not sure I feel comfortable writing them yet because of all the variables involved

  5. Amy – WESTERN BROWN LOCAL (verified owner)

    Very informative

  6. Katherine – WESTERN BROWN LOCAL (verified owner)

    I felt that there was very good information in this course but I feel that the delivery, at times, was slightly rude in the way that she tended to diminish the difficulty of goals that are written and designed for students that aren’t WEP goals. I can’t really put my finger on it but her delivery was someone rude to me on some things.

  7. Jennifer – RIPLEY-UNION-LEWIS-HUNTINGTON LOCAL (verified owner)

    Very good

  8. REGINA – RIPLEY-UNION-LEWIS-HUNTINGTON LOCAL (verified owner)

    Very informative.

  9. Barbara – RIPLEY-UNION-LEWIS-HUNTINGTON LOCAL (verified owner)

    There’s a lot to think about.

  10. Tami – WESTERN BROWN LOCAL (verified owner)

    Would like more specific examples of WEPs.
