Technical Assistance
Why request technical assistance from SETC?
Many students with special needs encounter learning obstacles that can be eliminated or minimized through assistive technology. SETC staff can support your school teams with guidance around selection, trial, and implementation of assistive technology (AT).
Free email/phone technical assistance is an opportunity for an individual to ask a quick question about a tool or strategy or about SETC services.
Paid technical assistance is an opportunity for a student’s team to meet with SETC staff to discuss and consider current assistive technology tools and strategies to support a student or classroom. Technical assistance is not an assistive technology evaluation or assessment. This process does not result in a prescription, nor does the process provide a letter of justification required for Medicaid funding for augmentative and alternative communication or other assistive technology tools. The school team is encouraged to take notes during the consultation and will be provided with a follow-up email with links to tools and resources discussed during the consultation. No formal report follows the consultation.
