(a) Purpose. The purpose of an IEEP is to identify the services needed for the VA to determine the veteran's current ability to achieve a vocational goal when this cannot reasonably be determined during the initial evaluation.
(b) Elements of the plan. An IEEP shall include the same elements as an IWRP except that:
(1) The long range goal shall be to determine achievement of a vocational goal is currently reasonably feasible;
(2) The intermediate objectives relate to problems of questions which must be resolved for the VA to determine the current reasonable feasibility of achieving a vocational goal.
