AT Assessment:
Tools for Today, Success for tomorrow




      


This training is designed for educators and related service providers seeking to strengthen their knowledge and build capacity in the consideration and assessment of school-based assistive technology (AT). Participants will explore federal and state requirements related to AT services and devices, including the role of functional evaluation within a student's customary environments. Regardless of a student's age, participants will learn to keep long-term outcomes in mind by considering tools and supports that can promote success beyond graduation and into postsecondary education, employment, and independent living. Participants will review a variety of resources and strategies for examining student needs, environmental factors, and task demands prior to selecting tools and supports.  From low-tech solutions to innovative digital supports, this training highlights how meaningful AT consideration and evaluation can increase access, participation, communication, autonomy, and independence for students with disabilities.
