Education

If you are considering continuing your education, there are many resources available, online and off, to help you with this.

The first thing to do is to contact your local or state Division of Blind services and arrange to meet with a counselor. They can help you to devise a plan with which you can achieve your goals.

Most will work with you to attend local universities and colleges that will be equipped often with everything you will need in your education. There are many online institutions that will also provide you with what you are looking for.

Computers and Technology

Computers and technology can strike fear into the heart of many people in the world, not just the blind and visually impaired.

With the world accelerating daily in its cyber speed. It is a daunting task for anyone to keep up in the turmoil.

For some the computer will be nothing more than a means of email communication and the occasional internet visit.

Others with desire and need for a viable means of employment will find that the computer can open up all new opportunities in the world.

Visit our computer and technology page to find out more about computers and accessibility.
