The Academy

At The Academy, we educate and empower parents, educators, and advocates with the knowledge and tools needed to navigate special education.

Led by Special Education Boss® Karen Mayer Cunningham, members of  The Academy attend LIVE (via Zoom) weekly training and support. The Academy members have access to over 300+ hours of previous training and an amazing supportive community. 

Whether you’re just starting or are a seasoned advocate, The Academy offers resources tailored to your needs. We dive deep into IEPs, 504 Plans, and educational rights, ensuring you're equipped to champion every child’s needs.

More than just information, we’re a community. Connect with like-minded individuals passionate about making a difference. Our members are dedicated, compassionate, and driven by the mission to advocate fiercely and effectively.

Join us in The Academy, where your advocacy skills will grow, your confidence will soar, and together, we’ll make a lasting impact on children’s lives.
