The presentation presents several action plan formats that can help states identify the key criteria that should be included in a high-quality action plan. Helpful handouts are included.

The purpose of this presentation was to introduce PTI and CPRC directors and staff to the IDEA data collected and reported by state education agencies and discuss how these data can be used to inform many of the fourteen priority topics for the PTI/CPRC network. These priorities were  identified in the most recent OSEP requests for proposals for PTI and CPRC funding.

The presentation provides practical suggestions and guidance to help states begin their evaluation work. States can learn about tools for (1) building their evaluation team and (2) measuring improvements to system infrastructure.
