Every Tuesday at 3:00 pm Central Time, Region 13’s Instructional Support team will conduct SPED Talk Tuesdays - free webinars that cover a variety of topics around instructional supports for students with learning needs.
Each SPED Talk Tuesday will include a brief presentation on a timely topic followed by a chat session for participants to ask questions about the presentation or something else related to special education services.
If you miss any talks or want resources mentioned in a talk, check out our public Canvas course. Scroll down this page to the SPED Talks Archive section for more information.

Sign Language Interpreter Requests
Sign Language Interpreter Requests
Accessibility is a priority at Region 13. With advance notice, we'd be happy to request a sign language interpreter to attend the webinar live via Zoom. We'll need two business days to get that set up, so please let us know by the Monday before the webinar you're attending. The recordings will all be captioned as quickly as possible.
Send sign language interpreter requests for SPED Talk Tuesdays to questions@esc13.net and please let us know which date you will be attending.
