Train the Trainer - December 2013

Train the Trainer has been significantly updated and also enriched with new multimedia. Participants will be expected to download both demo versions of adaptive software or free support software and spend part of almost every lesson actually acquiring hands-on experience.

Computer technology has the potential to provide the most level learning space and working space in history for people with disabilities. However, many users arrive on campus or at work with inadequate training on this technology. Either the K-12 system failed to provide them with the appropriate tools and training, or they may have only recently received the disability. They will need help in identifying the technology that will enable them to achieve more independence and need training to use it effectively. Your institution will need to have someone equipped to provide this training. The information in Train the Trainer will provide a staff person with the know-how to provide this support.
