This article assists users when completing the event.

The IEP Correction event is created by the user.  It is used to correct an error in a locked IEP.

To change a decision made in an IEP, create an IEP Amendment event. 

If a mistake is made in an IEP Amendment event, create a new IEP Amendment event, not an IEP Correction. The Amendment form is not included in the Correction event but is required when completing an amendment. 

For more information about creating and completing an IEP Correction Event, download the IEP Amendment and IEP Correction Quick Start Card. 

Event information

What is an IEP Correction?

The IEP Correction is used to correct a clerical error discovered after an IEP is locked. It cannot be used to change decisions made at the IEP meeting, only to fix a mistake made when entering the decision in the event. It is not used to correct errors made in an IEP Amendment.

What forms are included in an IEP Correction?

  • When an IEP Correction is created, all forms in the IEP being corrected are copied, including the Excusal, IEP Front Page, Front Page-Additional Participants, and Prior Written Notices.

  • The Correction Decision form is included to determine if a Correction Notification form is needed.

    • The Notification form is created if the parent has received a copy of the original IEP.

  • The Amendment form is not included in the IEP Correction event. If a mistake is made in an Amendment, a new IEP Amendment event must be created.
