The need for well-trained, technology-literate Assistive Technology Specialists grows each year. This program is designed to offer people the opportunity to acquire skills and competencies that will enable them to assist persons with disabilities to utilize computer technology to its maximum advantage. The people enrolled in the program are individuals concerned with the evaluation, selection, organization, implementation, and utilization of appropriate hardware, software, and telecommunications resources. The program provides supplemental training for both educators and practitioners and is appropriate for general and special educators, related service personnel, and service providers.
The program has a cross-disability, people-first perspective, with the goal of providing persons with disabilities access to the educational, research, social, cultural, and economic resources that assistive computer technology can provide.
