ASHA has prepared a detailed analysis that focuses on select sections of the 2006 IDEA Part B final regulations that have an impact on speech-language pathologists and audiologists practicing in a school setting. The document is in the form of a "side-by-side comparison analysis," comprised of: the 2006 IDEA Part B final regulations; the 1999 IDEA Part B regulations; and ASHA's summary and impact analysis of the changes.
Additional technical assistance materials, including issue briefs on topics such as personnel qualifications, early intervening services, responsiveness-to-intervention, and cochlear implants will be developed and made available to further assist members in the implementation of these regulations.
Please address specific questions and comments about the regulations to Catherine Clarke, ASHA's Director of Education and Regulatory Advocacy, at cclarke@asha.org or by phone at 800-498-2071, ext.4159. For practice-related IDEA issues or concerns, please contact Kathleen Whitmire, PhD, ASHA's Director of School Services, by e-mail at kwhitmire@asha.org or by phone at 800-498-2071, ext. 4137.
