While a disability can make cooking for yourself feel even more overwhelming\, a simple tool or strategy can often be all it takes to make it easier\, safer\, and much less stressful. In this discussion live from the Illinois Assistive Technology Program (IATP) Tech Kitchen\, we’ll show examples of a wide variety of low- and high-tech assistive kitchen tool options. These include: commercially available adaptive tools\, creative uses and modifications for standard tools\, individualized fabrication of tools\, and tools that use voice control and AI features. \nASL interpreters and captioning will be available for the the live event. \nLearning Objectives\n\nIdentify at least ten different kitchen tools or tool adaptations that may increase access to safe meal preparation.\nIdentify at least two possibilities for tool acquisition.\nIdentify at least one strategy for the prevention of tool abandonment.\n\nStrand(s)\nAT for Physical Access and Participation; Aging & AT \nTarget Audience\nAT Specialists; Caregivers; Consumers/Individuals with Disabilities; Consultants/Trainers; Curriculum and Instruction Individuals; Disability Services; Educators; Faculty/Instructors – Higher Education; Family Members; Government/Non-Profit Agencies; Occupational Therapists; Paraprofessionals; Physical Therapists; Rehabilitation Counselors; Speech-Language Pathologists; Special Education Educators; Teachers of the Visually Impaired; Teachers of the Deaf/Hard of Hearing; Transition Coordinators; Visual Impairment Specialists; Vocational Rehabilitation Specialists \nExperience Level\nIntroductory \nContent Area\nProfessional Area \nSession Delivery Format\nLive stream presentation on October 28\, 2025\, from 3-4:30 pm EST \nContinuing Education Credits\nFor Satisfactory Completion and Continuing Education information\, please visit: ATIA Learning Center CEUs \nThis course is offered for the following CE Provider Credits:\nIACET\nFor: 0.15 CEU Units or 1.5 CEU Hours. \nSpeaker/s:\nElizabeth Wright\nIllinois Assistive Technology Program\, Tech Kitchen Coordinator/Chef Instructor \nBIOGRAPHY\nElizabeth Wright is a professionally trained chef with a background in culinary and hospitality management.

Our goal for this course is to bring high quality education regarding access considerations to local clinicians. These courses have been taught and refined over many years to ensure the content is relevant\, digestible\, and applicable. \n\n\nWe ask that the clinicians who attend are somewhat experienced with AAC and already understand the basic operation of the devices. If not\, we may ask that they work with the local consultant prior to attending the class. During the lab sections\, participants will work in pairs. The class size should not exceed 30 participants. \n\n\nYour course includes 13 hours of instruction (1.3 ASHA CEUs with a certificate for other credentialing requirements). We will also include a morning and afternoon break as well as a lunch break. \n\n\nAgenda\n\n\n\nIntroduction: 15 minutes\nOverview of the ALP: 15 minutes\nALP for AAC: 60 minutes\nFacilitating Strategies and Application: 20 minutes\nSummary\, Review\, Planning: 10 minutes\nVision: 60 minutes\nPositioning/Movement: 45 minutes\nTouch Access: 45 minutes\nHead Tracking – Part I: 30 minutes\nHead Tracking – Part II: 45 minutes\nEye Tracking – Part I: 45 minutes\nEye Tracking – Part II: 75 minutes\nSwitches: 120 minutes\nGrand Rounds: 60 minutes\nIntroduction to Core Principles: 15 minutes\nOverview of mounting components: 30 minutes\nHands on Lab with Q/A: 75 minutes\n\nMore about Video Grand Rounds: This is an excellent opportunity to crowd source ideas for moving your client’s access forward. Teams are asked to bring videos of their clients for whom they would like input for an access-related issue. We’re going to have 20+ great minds in the room\, let’s put them all to work using what we know and what we learn over these 2 days to help someone improve their skills. \n\n\nRegistration\nRegister Now\n\nWe prefer to have attendees pre-registered so registration on the day of the event goes more smoothly. \n\n\nParticipants will need to sign in to the training every day to be eligible for ASHA CEUs and certificates of attendance.
