Calling all Higher Education Faculty across Alabama 👀🔥

We’re launching the Higher Education Assistive Technology (HEAT) Cohort—a new initiative focused on bringing together faculty across disciplines to strengthen access to assistive technology and better prepare future professionals across the state.

HEAT is a collaboration between UA College of Education, Accessing Potential Through Assistive Technology (APT AT), and United Ability. As part of this initiative, 25 faculty members will receive complimentary registration to the AT Alabama Conference.

If you’re a faculty member at a higher education institution in Alabama, whether you’re already integrating assistive technology or just getting started, we’d love to have you join us.
