The Ohio Related Service Personnel Network (ORSPN) Community of Practice meetings have been scheduled for 2025.  ORSPN is again partnering with the Office for Exceptional Children to provide updates, information, and resources to support your practice in school settings.  Our meetings will focus on Hot Topics for related service personnel, such as caseload/workload, documenting IEP minutes, adding or removing related services, supporting students through indirect services, missed service minutes, determining least restrictive service delivery, and more.

All are welcome.  Please share this registration invitation with your school team.

These meetings are in person.  Sign-in begins at 9:15. The program will begin at 9:30 and end at 3:45. Please see the schedule for the day using this link:  ORSPN Schedule

There will be dedicated, extra time to discuss questions from the field.  Questions should be sent to me, bmgeorge173@gmail.com no later than June 15, 2025.  Indicate in your subject line: QUESTION FOR 2025 ORSPN MEETING and include your contact information (name, email, phone).
