1. Individual educational plan, is a diploma without the regents credits. You should be able to use it to go to a votec school.
2. The IEP is the document that detailed your needs and what the school would provide in services to help you obtain your educational goals. I am assuming you have a diploma without the full credits of a regular HS Diploma. This is a tricky area -- and depends on the Vo-Tec school you are going to. Best thing is to take your HS Transcript with you when you go to the Vo-Tec School and see what they will require to ensure you complete your training. You may need some additional courses or help with some subjects, because even construction fields need measuring skills, ability to read instructions, and to calculate or lay out angles (for example). Cooking schools require you to read temperatures, calculate times, figure out measurements, etc.
