Xperts, an information technology (IT) services company, has signed a contract, beginning July 2002, with the Virginia Beach, Virginia Public School System to provide IEP Online version 5.0 to Virginia Beach's 85 schools.
IEP Online's fully Web-based individualized education plan (IEP) software will significantly reduce the time teachers spend filling out paperwork for special education students and streamline the process of developing the best possible individualized education plan for each of the system's 10,000 special education students.
"Virginia Beach is an excellent school system and they are dedicated to offering one of the finest special education services on the East Coast," said Robert Strickland, chief executive officer of Xperts, Inc. "We are pleased to assist them in their efforts to greatly enhance their technology infrastructure for the IEP process. IEP Online will make it significantly easier for the school system to meet federal and state regulations and cut the time that teachers spent on paper work in half, allowing them more time to spend with the students."
Xperts' IEP Online is fully Web-based, allowing teachers and other authorized users to access and update the IEP database using a networked computer with a loaded Web browser and a Flash 6.0 plug-in. This advanced system handles the entire special education process, including student demographics, child study, eligibility, IEP processing, 504 documentation and caseload management. The product is simple to install and upgrade, can interface with any student information system (SIS) to extract appropriate data and, with four levels of security embedded in the product, parents, students, teachers and administrators are all assured of appropriate privacy protection and security of confidential information.
