Workgroups

Workgroups are established by the Board of Directors and are assigned a specific charge and outcomes to be completed within a designated period of time. Workgroup members have knowledge, skills, and expertise in a particular area of strategic importance to the Council. The workgroup chair reports to the Board of Directors through the President Elect.

Evidence-Based Practice Beta Test Workgroup
The workgroup is conducting a beta test of the process described in Classifying the State of Evidence for Special Education Professional Practices: Practice Study Manual (July 2008). The beta test will involve at least three practice studies, conducted in collaboration with divisions, to evaluate the practice-study process with respect to the reliability of the practice classifications, efficiency improvements, timeliness of the process, final outcome, and overall cost-effectiveness. The workgroup functions under the supervision of the Professional Standards and Practice Committee.
