The cognitive impairment program prepares teachers to work effectively with students in a variety of educational settings. In this comprehensive program candidates learn research-based practices: for developing academic, adaptive behavior, communication, and social skills; for including students in the general education curriculum; for implementing a variety of assessment procedures; for implementing assistive technologies; for collaborating with families and other educational staff; and for transitioning individuals with a CI from school to life. Candidates have multiple opportunities to apply this knowledge by working directly with students in the school setting.
