Should testing accommodations be provided for students with disabilities on technical assessments?
According to federal and State laws and regulations, students with disabilities, like their nondisabled peers, must have access to the full range of education programs and services, including courses, tests and examinations, to the extent appropriate for each individual student. Also, they must receive testing accommodations as specified in their individualized education program (IEP) in all tests (teacher, district, State, etc.). When participating in CTE programs a student must be able to complete the necessary CTE program requirements.
