The Nevada Individual Education Plan can be sent to parents/guardians to electronically sign (eSign) on the Campus Parent Portal. This document provides step-by-step instructions on the eSignature process.
Setup
Proper setup is needed in order for the plan to successfully go to the Portal for an eSignature.
Tool Rights
Tool: Tool Rights
Make sure the user requesting the eSignature has the appropriate tool rights to Request eSignature on Portal (Student Information > Special Ed > Special Ed Documents > Plan > Request eSignature on Portal). This tool right is either on or off, meaning assigning any of the RWAD rights allows the user to send an eSignature request. For example, marking the Delete checkbox provides the same rights as marking the Read checkbox.

Lock
Locking the plan completes the process and syncs the plan to the state. Three conditions must be met in order to lock the plan. Usually, these are done by the guardian during the eSignature process.
- On the Procedural Safeguards editor, the "I have received a statement..." checkbox must be marked.
- On the IEP Implementation editor, either the the first or second "As a parent..." checkboxes must be marked.
- On the Medicaid Consent editor when the Print in Plan checkbox is marked, either the Yes or No checkboxes must be marked. There is no logic for locking when the Print in Plan checkbox is not marked.
Additional lock logic may apply when the plan was not filled out completely.
Click Lock to complete the plan process. A warning displays indicating users are not able to make any changes unless they have additional Unlock Tool Rights.
Lock Warning Message
Click OK to proceed. A locked icon
displays indicating the plan is locked.
