Ascertaining an effective delivery method to enhance general education teacher empowerment and confidence in working with students with disabilities is the focus of this research. A survey instrument and focus group discussions were used with participants to determine how effective professional training was as an ongoing tool to enhance inclusive education services by general education teachers. Results indicate professional training has a positive impact on secondary general education teachers' willingness and ability to follow legal guidelines and implement accommodations in the inclusive classroom.
