Description of CE Program/Activity
 Though many forms of text-based messaging are available, there is still a need to have the ability to access the phone system for those who are DeafBlind. In circumstances where the individual cannot see an interpreter through a video phone and cannot access the phone system through hearing or using their own speech, there are 2 different services available: T-Mobile IPRelay and MMXDB. The 2 solutions are dramatically different from one another but are equally valuable for different individuals who make up the DeafBlind community. This webinar will focus on discussing each service, why some individuals may wish to use one over the other, and will also have demonstrations. This webinar is intended for technology trainers of individuals who are DeafBlind. On-screen sign language interpretation, voice over and captioning will be provided. This webinar will be taught by Scott Davert and Anindya Bapin Bhattacharyya, experts in the area of DeafBlind technology.
