2016-2017 New Special Education Directors/Coordinators Seminar Series

This new seminar series is dedicated to supporting new Directors/Coordinator during their first, second and/or third year of serving their school district as Special Education Directors. 

Additional opportunities to network with Special Education directors will occur during the OACOA Seminar Series: September 23, January 28 and April 21 for the job-alike portion of the agenda.  These meetings will focus on current concerns from the field and areas that need clarifying.  Special Education focused seminars are being planned for November 8 and February 8.  Seminars will be held at the Red Lion in Salem.

The facilitator for the New SPED Director/Coordinator group is Linda Warberg, retired SPED Director of 30+ years and current SPED Department Chair for George Fox University.  She will organize our events and connect new Directors/Coordinators with specialists in the field for further support.
