Description of CE Program/Activity
 Is your student eligible for vision services?On July 1, 2019 Missouris State Regulations Implementing Part B of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) changed the definition and criteria for determination of eligibility as a student with a visual impairment. Please join Jane Herder of Outreach at Missouri School for the Blind to be informed of the changes and to understand how this change affects the eligibility and services for students who may be considered visually impaired.Then, discover all the new products and tools for your students from American Printing House for the Blind with Yvonne Ali. Yvonne will present on already-launched new products! From the Chameleon to Feel the Beat, and Hop-a-Dot to the new Lightboxes! Students will have access to several new game-changing products, designed to improve school, college, work, and overall life success.The Library Media Center (LMC) at the Missouri School for the Blind (MSB) is more than a place to check out books. While the LMC does indeed have more than 30,000 braille, talking books, large print and regular print books and magazines for loan it also provides access to the latest in adaptive technology through its partnership with the Missouri Instructional Resource Center. The LMC also houses a Professional Development Library with a wide variety of print, digital, and audio-visual resources.
