InSpEd Endorsed University and Professional Learning Courses
InSpEd is committed to supporting both university and inservice education that will equip those working in special education roles to provide quality instruction for the individuals with special education needs in their care.
In order for a course to be endorsed by InSpEd, course providers will need to complete an application for course endorsement and email it to info@insped.org.au. The application will then be sent to relevant members of the Expert Panel for assessment.
Applicants will be informed of the outcome and, if endorsed, the course will be published on the webpage as an InSpEd endorsed course. Courses endorsed by InSpEd will have a strong research base and address one or more of the Standards for the Certification of Special Educators.
University Courses
InSpEd is committed to ensuring that the quality of university education in special education remains high. We are currently working with university course co-ordinators to develop an assessment of course coverage of the standards developed by InSpEd.
InSpEd Professional Learning Courses
All courses offered by InSpEd will go through the same rigorous assessment process as is afforded to outside courses.Those interested in attending these courses or arranging for a course to be held at their school or service should apply to info@insped.org.au.
Other Professional Learning Courses
Professional Learning Courses endorsed by the InSpEd Expert Panel require an assessment by two Expert Panel members with expertise in the area that is the target of the professional learning.Therefore, courses endorsed by InSpEd but offered by other providers are quality courses appropriate to the needs of those working in special education roles.
