The Assistive Technology Department works directly with site-based teams to facilitate and improve access to learning opportunities and materials through implementation of AT strategies and tools. Collaboration with teams can focus on classrooms or programs as a whole, or individual students with an IEP or 504 plan. This might include observation in students' typical learning environment(s), consultation with other service providers, making specific recommendations for assistive technology supports, arranging access, development of customized AT interventions, and training students, staff, and parents.

In addition, we can provide individual and group training on specific hardware and software, as well as general strategies for using assistive technology in the classroom.  We work closely with the Special Education Instructional Materials Center (IMC) in acquiring, tracking, and maintaining assistive technology for loan to students and teachers.
