  Illinois Elevating Special Educators (IESE) Network - This position covers area 5 in the attached state wide service area map.

  The IESE Network's purpose is to partner with entities across the state to create sustainable systems to support IEP development, IEP implementation, and high-leverage practice (HLP) use to increase outcomes of students with disabilities.

This role will ensure that coaching structure and supports are evidence-based and aligned with IDEA requirements, specially designed instruction, ISBE priorities, and IESE Network goals. The Program Advisor will work closely with the IESE Network state-wide team, External Evaluator, and ISBE Project Director to ensure grant effectiveness and efficiency.
