Special Education Leadership Development Academy (SELDA)

Call for New Special Education Directors for 2017-2018 SELDA!

We would like to invite NEW Special Education Directors to attend the 2017-2018 Special Education Leadership Development Academy (SELDA).  This academy is a collaboration between the Georgia Department of Education (GaDOE) and Georgia Council of Administrators of Special Education (G-CASE).  The purpose of SELDA is to prepare new special education directors through a series of meetings and forums.  We are committed to offering the support you need to understand and provide general supervision that monitors the implementation of the IDEA. 

If there is space permitting after the New Special Education Directors have registered we will open registration to district support staff.
