TAI Road Trip is a
traveling assistive technology demonstration lab. It takes assistive
technology
to special events, rural communities and events that traditionally
do not have an assistive technology focus; places where people
may not otherwise have the opportunity for hands-on experience
with assistive technology.
At Technology and Inclusion
our team of assistive technology specialists is lead by Executive Director,
Jamie Judd-Wall ATP, who is a nationally certified RESNA Assistive
Technology
Practitioner (ATP). Other team members include speech-language pathologists,
occupational therapists, special education teachers, and an educational
diagnostician. Each member with the TAI Road Trip has had training
and experience in using assistive technology.
Technology and Inclusion is
able to set up to 10 demonstration stations with our own computers, adaptive
devices and software. The lab may be set up as a workshop with specific
training activities, or as a flow-through area, open for the entire duration
of an event like a conference or seminar where attendees can try-out various
devices and software programs.
Fees for hosting a TAI Road
Trip vary depending on the number of stations and type of format
you
request. An entire 10 station lab with Technology and Inclusion’s
computers, access equipment and software is $1,000 per day and may include
travel, lodging and per diem expenses for workshops performed outside
the greater Austin area. State rates apply for mileage, hotel and meal
reimbursement. If you provide the computers and Technology and Inclusion
provides the access equipment and software, the fee is $750 per day
plus
travel expenses if necessary. If you want a smaller lab we can customize
the set-up to meet your event needs.
We invite you to call us.
Bring a traveling lab of assistive technology and experienced professionals
to your next event.
