About Us
Purpose & Project Overview
The Prekindergarten Exceptional Student Education-Technical Assistance and Training System (PESE), an IDEA-funded state project, is dedicated to maintaining a comprehensive statewide system of technical assistance and training. Our goal is to use a variety of strategies to build capacity, develop infrastructure and ensure the effective and sustainable implementation of evidence-based practices. By doing so, we strive to enhance educational results and functional outcomes for young children with disabilities and their families.
The project is based at the University of Central Florida, with staff providing technical assistance and training in seven regions throughout the state. PESE Regional Facilitators offer statewide support and training, addressing various needs throughout Florida’s districts.
