Nationally, recent data shows the field of visual impairment has a significant shortage of professionals available to work with the number of individuals with visual impairments who require instruction. This distance-enhanced, graduate-level program prepares scholars to become certified as orientation and mobility specialists. It includes a focus on the importance of diversity, inclusion and equity in service provision. Further, it teaches scholars how to provide administrators, parents, teachers and other stakeholders with increased awareness of the specialized needs of students who are blind or visually impaired and to advocate for their inclusion across settings.
