Abstract
This article discusses current issues and practices affecting noncategorical programs for students and teachers. It first summarizes the problems found in categorical special education programs. Major problems are grouped into three sections: Labeling Practices, Definitions, and Service Delivery. Next, noncategorical, competency-based teacher preparation is examined. Noncategorical service delivery and teacher preparation alternatives are then presented. Finally, a number of remaining issues that inhibit noncategorical special education are discussed.
