Monthly, the State QIO Team will review selected QIOs from all EIBs. The team may decide to review QIOs based on specific sections of the IFSP (e.g., family assessment, global outcomes, IFSP outcomes) or overall quality. The State QIO Team reviews QIO data to identify trends and inform training and technical assistance needs across the state. The State QIO Team will monitor the number of IFSPs completed in a month where the ‘Family Chose Not to Participate' in the Family Assessment and the monitoring of Spanish-translated IFSPs to track these occurrences across the state. This information is also used to create our bi-monthly Q-Tips, which are helpful IFSP writing tips that are shared during Technical Assistance (TA) calls. It is the EI Coordinator’s responsibility to share any QIO information and Q-tips with service coordinators that are shared during the TA call.
QIO data informs our general supervision and monitoring of EIBs as well as State Systemic Improvement Plan (SSIP) activities and reporting to the Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP).
