Individualized Education Profiles (IEPs)
"The IEP process is the centerpiece, the heart and soul, of the Individuals
with Disabilities Act (IDEA). It is the procedure for devising the "Free

to which every eligible child who has a disability and needs special education
is entitled. To fully appreciate the role of the IEP process one needs to
review it briefly in the context of the whole IDEA schema." Barbara D.
Bateman,
