USD Law Special Education Law and Advocacy Series (SELAS)

With a goal of providing important and useful information on special education law and practice, the University of San Diego School of Law offers its Special Education Law and Advocacy Series (SELAS).

This specialized program not only educates participants about the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) and other related laws and includes an in-depth look at Regional Center services, it also offers practical tips for special education advocacy.

Past participants have included parents of children with disabilities, professionals working in related fields, school district staff, related services providers (such as speech and language pathologists), attorneys, and others.

The series includes six seminars, which may be taken individually or as a complete program. The seminars are taught by experienced special education attorneys as well as a licensed clinical psychologist. No textbook is required and each seminar includes electronic handouts.

A “Certificate of Completion” will be given to all enrollees who complete all six seminars in person or by Zoom. **Viewing the recording alone will not qualify for certification.

THERE ARE NO CLASSES ON APRIL 5 AND 19.
