AllAccess: Exploring the Possibilities of Alternative Access and AAC
Presented by Betty Carter M.A., CCC/SLP



There are many individuals who can access augmentative alternative communication (AAC) with the touch of a finger. However, there are also a significant number of people with more complex physical disabilities that require an alternative to touching a screen.

This session will encourage participants to "explore the possibilities" for clients with complex communication and access needs. It is a half day training set in a lab environment with a focus on providing participants hands-on experience with all of the various access methods PRC offers. From touch to eye gaze and many things in between, the training includes: - How to get started quickly with eye gaze, head pointing, switches and touch access. - Basic customization to meet client needs - Clinical tips and video examples - Guided practice and hands-on exploration
