Access Is Not Accidental: The Case for Strong AT Evaluations (For Vision Professionals in LAREDO)

Complete Attendance not available before workshop starts.

Assistive technology does not “just work” because it is purchased or added to an IEP—it works when it is intentionally evaluated, thoughtfully selected, and meaningfully implemented. This full-day session explores why strong assistive technology (AT) evaluations are a legal requirement under IDEA, a critical component of IEP compliance, and a powerful driver of student independence and educational outcomes.
Participants will examine the purpose and components of high-quality AT evaluations, explore the wide range of AT tools currently available, and learn how to move beyond trial-and-error decision making. The session will conclude with a forward-looking discussion of evolving evaluation practices, including the presenter’s vision for future-ready AT evaluations and a preview of a comprehensive AT evaluation framework currently under development.
This session is designed for practitioners who want their AT decisions to be legally sound, instructionally meaningful, and student-centered. #ESC1VI
