Description of CE Program/Activity
 CVI Ally, a book and educational tool currently in development through Perkins Publications is intended as a guide and companion for students, their families, and their educational teams as they strive together to create an accessible, fair, and appropriate educational experience centered around the student. CVI Ally is centered around a CVI Academic Access Inventory, which details CVIs potential impact on all the major domains of the school day. Authors Matt Tietjen, Nai, and Rachel Bennett have designed this companion online course to CVI Ally to guide teams in using knowledge of a students visual needs to design an accessible school day.This course relies on a baseline knowledge of cortical/cerebral visual impairment and the general and subject-specific domains of a school day. While all are welcome, participants will be most successful with a foundational understanding of CVI.
