Course description
This is the 2nd session in a 4 part series. Sessions can be attended individually, however, it is encouraged that participants attend all 4 sessions.
Successful assistive technology programs begin with a vision of what quality services should look like and a course of action that helps the agency move toward that vision. This series is intended to support educational leaders in developing and/or improving assistive technology services by offering a practical roadmap to effective assistive technology services. Throughout the series, participants will investigate barriers many districts face in the provision of assistive technology and focus on specific leadership actions that can move districts toward high-quality, and cost-efficient AT services.
Join Gayl Bowser, author of Leading the Way to Excellence in AT Services: A Guide for School Administrators as she provides guidance and resources to build successful AT services in your agency.
This session is intended for two audiences: educational administrators and assistive technology providers. Educational administrators include principals, assistant principals, special education directors, special education supervisors and/or anyone else filling a position of leadership in the schools.
A follow-up coaching session will be facilitated by Beth Zillinger and Janet Peters on January 10.
