Project Goal
To provide training to Special Education teachers and professional on how to create new
goals within SIRAS Systems

Problem/Opportunity Definition
Individual Educational Plans (IEPs) are constantly being submitted as non-compliant.
The department needs a solution to avoid issues with state and federal agencies.

Proposed Solution
The proposed solution is an hour-long training aimed to show how to create new goals
within SIRAS Systems. The training would consist of an eLearning module that will be divided
into two sub-modules; Module 1 and Module 2. Module 1 would provide a pre-assessment
survey before starting the training. The SIRAS Systems user manual will be provided in PDF
format for users to have the document available. The module would then go through an overview
of SIRAS and its purpose in the department.
Module 2 would target creating new goals within SIRAS Systems and filling a compliant
IEP. The module would make use of video resources, activities and a post-assessment survey will
be offer at the end to capture user engagement and understanding.
