Central FL Parent Center
Training Presentations
All of our
"in-person" presentations are available to groups who request them AT
ABSOLUTELY NO COST.
We will bring our own equipment, helpful handouts,
and everything that we need to present our program.
All of our presentations are available in Spanish also.
As you will see, most of our
presentations are
designed to fit within an hour-and-a-half to two-hour time slot.
For conference events with shorter
breakout sessions, we would prefer to break our presentations into two
parts, however, if a shorter session is needed, we can, of course,
accommodate.
Please scroll down to see our list of available in-person presentations.

Getting Over the Wall
Communicating in the IEP
Presentation time: 90 - 120 minutes
Both parents and educators report that I.E.P. meetings are some of the most stressful events of each school year. Why? Why would a meeting which generally only takes place once each year cause such anxiety?
