Georgia Online IEP combines data from the state SLDS system and other data submitted in various reports to DOE to present student data to special education personnel accurately and securely. We have determined that a successful launch of the GO-IEP system in your district is dependent upon the completion of the following items on this checklist prior to GO-IEP training:

o Your school system must be actively using SLDS.

o All staff that will have access to GO-IEP must have must have logged in to the SLDS at least once prior to the GO-IEP training.

o All students must have a GTID, including pre-K students, and students served in the community.

o GTIDs must be claimed daily. If the GTID number needs to be created, the GTID coordinator at the district would need the following information to create the GTID:

First name, Last name, SSN (if they have it), Gender, Date of Birth, Parent/Guardian name, Hispanic (Y/N) and Race        

o A GO-IEP system or school administrator must have assigned permissions within the application to all users who will be trained.

o A GO-IEP system or school administrator must have assigned all IEP students to a case manager.

o GNETS students must first be assigned to a case manager in the LEA which owns the GTID. Then, on the profile page in GO, a system administrator in the LEA should mark the student as a GNETS student and select center-based or school-based.  After that is done, a GNETS admin can change the case manager to be a GNETS teacher if appropriate.

o Your school district must plan for a representative of the district's technology department to be assigned to this project and present for initial training.

o If there are questions or concerns regarding the SLDS, please contact Jesse Peavy at (404) 295-2862 or jpeavy@doe.k12.ga.us

If any of these items cannot be completed before the scheduled training day, please let a member of the GO-IEP team know as soon as possible.
