Special Education Training and Resource Center

 

 

 

 

CA-BOCES SETRC provides coaching and technical assistance to school districts based on the district’s needs. 

 

The first priority for services is given to districts involved in the Facilitated Review process and districts involved in the Quality Improvement Process are given second priority. All other staff development needs are determined by the districts. The CABOCES SETRC also has a library with materials on a variety of topics related to disabilities that can be borrowed.
