Iowa IDEA Information (i3) - a NEW website from the Iowa Department of Education and Iowa's AEAs.

The Iowa Department of Education and Iowa’s Area Education Agencies (AEAs) are announcing the launch of a new early intervention and special education guidance system, known as Iowa IDEA Information (i3). It was developed collaboratively with local districts and with input from parents and partner agencies from across Iowa. 

The launch of i3 means the phasing out of the current Iowa IDEA Info site, including AEA Special Education Procedures. The i3 system will bring with it enhancements that will prove to be invaluable to users, such as:

• A one-stop shop for IFSP and IEP procedures and resources
• User-friendly formatting for easy site navigation
• Increased options for searching content and resources
• Ability to allow for real-time updates with built-in options to clearly communicate updates to users
• Translation options
