A team or group which is made up of representatives from several different statutory and/or non-statutory organisations, who all have different areas of expertise, eg a Special Needs Accommodation Group (SNAG).
In contrast to an interdisciplinary process, a process that proceeds as separate evaluations by various professionals who often are affiliated with different entities (i.e., a university or hospital), are rarely in close proximity and often operate without benefit of collaboration with other evaluating professionals, consequently often drawing separate conclusions based upon their particular experience. A multidisciplinary process can take one to two days, with the child and family participating in numerous sessions, or it can take place over the course of several months.
