I am definitely interested. I would be coming from D.C. (any plans to offer this in my area?) where would the participants be staying? recommended hotels close by? Thanks for offering this! It is just what I need to make my O&M training sessions better. -- Marybeth Cleveland, COMS A to B and Back, O&M Services, LLC 301-412-4224 mbcleveland@fastmail.net On Tue, Oct 25, 2016, at 06:07 AM, Diane Brauner wrote: Hi Everyone The Perkins Hi-Tech O&M training last month was a huge success - and the demand for this training continues! Imagine two packed days of instruction geared for O&Ms on how to incorporate technology into O&M lessons - including using technology with young students, students with multiple disabilities and more "traditional O&M" navigational apps for advanced travelers. This training is hands-on! Want to do a scavenger hunt using BlindSquare? Create a low vision digital map on the fly? Learn about these functional and fun O&M activities and more! Participants will receive a FREE copy of BlindSquare app! The GMS Hi-Tech O&M training will be on Nov. 21st - 22nd, held on the Governor Morehead School for the Blind campus in Raleigh, NC. This will be a blended Perkins workshop, meaning that there is an online component plus the two days of face-to-face training. The cost is $199 for 16 hours of ACVREP credit and the new Perkins micro-credential. Please share this information and/or the Hi-Tech O&M registration link.<http://www.perkinselearning.org/earn-credits/onsite-training/hi-tech-om-gms> Please note that the registration will close in TWO WEEKS!
