CEC continues to be the single most impactful and influential organization impacting the rights of students with disabilities, and ensuring their access to a free and appropriate public education in the United States today. I can’t think of a more meaningful and significant way to continue my personal and professional mission of protecting the principles of IDEA than being a part of the CEC community.”
Dr. Hulett has spent over 20 years in public education, serving at every level of the educational enterprise – including special education teacher, assistant principal, principal, and leadership roles at both the central office and state levels. He has also served in executive roles and consulted for a multitude of companies including Harcourt Assessment, Pearson Assessment, McGraw Hill, and a number of other corporate entities.
