Instructional Program Type

A is 15 or less hours (including CWC time) and B is 15+ hours. C is speech only and D is for children 3 – 5 years old – early childhood or speech pre-schoolers we bring in. **A and B both include time in and out (CWC) of the RR.**

When writing an IEP, I list resource classroom services as direct minutes of time and CWC services as indirect minutes. That way when I go to add up minutes it is separated for me on the IEP. Not sure if I am supposed to, but that is how I do it to keep it organized to me. Let me know if this is NOT a good idea. - Sara B.
 * When figuring out LRE categories, like category 100 or 110, we don’t include CWC time.

Everything Sara wrote looks okay, but technically services provided to a student in a class within a class (CWC) setting are direct services. Our state doesn't distinguish between direct and indirect services for data collection so I'm not concerned. I usually think of indirect services as those provided in a consultive manner on behalf of a student. You may use Sara's distinction if that helps you remember what service minutes to count to calculate the LRE versus the program type. Thanks Sara for thining of using a wiki to get the word out on various topics! Lyn H.
