Special Education Council
The Special Education Council (SEC) seeks to advance the education of students with special needs and to improve the teaching practices and resources of those working on behalf of special needs students throughout Alberta.
Activities
To carry out its mandate, the Special Education Council (SEC) liaises with government agencies and other groups to influence the development of provincial and local policies and to ensure that such policies enhance the education of special needs students. The Council works to increase public awareness of the necessity for education for special needs students and encourages and supports educators with new and innovative ideas.
Through its annual conference, the Council provides opportunities for networking and for professional development. In addition, the Council holds an annual award ceremony to recognize outstanding individual service to students with special needs.
Publications
Approximately three times a year, the Special Education Council publishes The Special Educator, a newsletter containing information related to the education of students with special needs.
