Tech Support: An Evidence-Based Project for Assistive Technology Training in School-Based Occupational Therapy Practice Webinar

Ready to elevate your impact in the classroom? Join school-based occupational therapist Zetryana Rivera, working with Charter Schools in Nevada on July 17th at 6:00 PM PT.

Designed for both beginners and those aiming to enhance their classroom implementation, this course explores the vital role of occupational therapy practitioners (OTPs) in supporting assistive technology (AT) use within school settings. The American Occupational Therapy Association (AOTA) identifies AT as an area for OTPs to evaluate, intervene, and treat. AT use has expanded, becoming a common tool for all students to access in the classroom. This course will examine research-informed training approaches for OTPs, highlighting effective strategies and tools to enhance their confidence and skills in using assistive technology in schools.
