Maine CITE Webinar: More Than a Device: Understanding AT under IDEA

Date: September 23, 2026
Time: 3:00pm – 4:00pm ET

Program Description

This session examines the rules governing Assistive Technology (AT) under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). AT is not just about providing special tools or devices for students; it also includes the training and support needed to use them correctly. Participants will learn how the law is written specifically for AT so they can create strong Individualized Education Plans (IEPs). We will cover the importance of tracking student progress and setting up training for teachers, families, and students. You will also get a list of national and state resources that offer extra help and tech support.

Presenter: Krystle Merry, Ph.D., NBCT.
