IDEA Regs Available, Reformatted by Wrightslaw

September 10, 2006

On August 3, the Department of Education announced that the regulations to implement IDEA 2004 were available to the public. 

The regulations are difficult to navigate and key information is buried deep in the 1,700 page document.

Wrightlaw attempted to make reading and searching for information user friendly by reformatting the regulations. The regulations have been into shorter files (i.e. Subpart A, Subpart B, etc) that track the IDEA statute and indented the text. These changes are intended to make the regulations easier to understand. The IDEA 2004 regulations are now about 100 pages long.
