Who We Are |
The Department of the Interior's (DOI) Accessible
Technology Program was established in June, 2000 to support
employees with disabilities by determining the appropriate assistive
technology and ergonomic solutions for the individual. These
accommodations enable employees
with disabilities to equal access to information technology that is
essential in today's workplace. |
Our Mission |
To support employees with disabilities by determining
the appropriate assistive technology and ergonomic solutions
tailored to the needs of each individual. |
What We Do |
The Accessible Technology Center has 5 workstations
available for hands-on demonstrations and evaluations of assistive
technologies. Each of the workstations is geared to the
demonstration of products that provide accommodations for a
particular category of disability. There is a station for sight,
hearing, cognitive, mobility/dexterity impairments as well as a
Section 508 web testing station. There are a variety of ergonomic
keyboards, seating, monitors, "point and click" devices
such as alternative mice and trackballs at each workstation. |
