e-IEP PRO vs IEPWriter

e-IEP PRO is a customizable web-based student management system for schools and districts handling special education. It centralizes student information and supports paperless transfer of electronic records. Modules cover referrals, meeting notices, prior written notices, assessments and evaluations, IEPs, progress reporting, Section 504 forms, Medicaid session tracking, and compliance reporting. The system incorporates federal and state required documents and is tailored to state requirements. Reporting includes ad-hoc, State (AzEDS), and Census reports, with a module for Student Information System integration. Notifications flag due dates for meetings and IEP or MET reviews. IEP team document locking is intended to protect data integrity. The hosted service is accessible from internet-connected computers or mobile devices. Training videos and software support are available 24/7. The maker offers scheduled online demonstrations, typically about 1.5 hours.

IEPWriter is a web-based special education document system for local education agencies. It lets LEAs create IEPs, evaluation reports, behavioral improvement plans, letters, and other documents. Available modules include Children Count/IDEA, PIMS, Section 504, Progress Monitoring, and STaR options for LEAs and intermediate units. Children Count offers over 30 standard reports and a built-in custom reporting option. Progress Monitoring collects and analyzes student goal progress and can display it in graphs for reports. STaR lets service providers track student and other activity time from a web-enabled device, review the last 30 days of logs, and export billing data for MA-eligible students. A subscription-based SIS Bridge syncs information with district student information systems; interoperability depends on the SIS and the data required. The maker says browser-to-site communication is encrypted with TLS and data is backed up daily. The application requires high-speed internet and a current common browser. Tablet and iPad browsers are supported, though some features may be limited by the device. Pricing is available by contacting Leader Services.
