Who is a candidate for technology devices or services?

Assistive technology specialists are available to help determine:

• whether an assistive technology assessment may be appropriate,

• what type and level of assessment is indicated,

• any further involvement of the project staff in the assessment process, and

• available options if assessment is not warranted.

The process of consideration usually involves:

• observation of the student in the school, home or other settings,

• review of school records, and

• discussions with teachers, therapists, parents and caregivers.

All options will be discussed and an assessment plan will be formulated, if appropriate.
