The Individualized Education Program Technical Assistance Center or IEP TA Center, formerly the Indiana IEP Resource Center, is a project of Indiana State University supported through Part B federal funds distributed by the Indiana Department of Education. The purpose of the center is to increase knowledge, skills, and capacity of Indiana educators to improve outcomes for students with disabilities. The IEP TA Center promotes inclusive education with a belief in shared responsibility and equitable access to a strong core curriculum with high-quality instruction benefiting all students. To fulfill this purpose, IEP TA Center staff provide professional learning, technical assistance, and resources to support educators in the field.

The IEP TA Center will no longer be hosting the Focus on Inclusion Conference this February. However, a new statewide conference is in the works. In collaboration with the Indiana Department of Education, the IEP TA Center is excited to introduce a new statewide conference focused on improving outcomes for students with disabilities. The conference, intended for general educators, special educators, and administrators, will take place at the Hyatt Regency Indianapolis and the Indiana Convention Center on November 28-29, 2023. Mark your calendars and plan to join us for this inaugural event. Please contact the IEP TA Center with any questions.

While the IEP Technical Assistance Center is primarily a resource for teachers and administrators, we also partner with family support agencies and work to provide resources to help parents understand the IEP process.
