The Weekly From the Desk of Debra Leff Date: April 21, 2017 Certification in Deafblindness: Applications for the Project CAT-SI Cohort 2 are open for you to apply to the Teacher of Students with Deafblindness Graduate Certificate program. I've also attached the Region 3, Teacher of Students with Deafblindness Initiative flyer and a chart that shows the requirements and what is covered through this and the CAT-SI grants. These are fantastic opportunities to gain a certificate in DeafBlindness! May 2nd TVI/COMS Meeting: Our final meeting of the year is May 2nd. In the AM we will have several guest speakers review Transition options. I have TX Workforce Solutions, ACC, Lighthouse, EXIT and a MIVI speaker set up for that session. Transition was rated as the largest need on all of your surveys. I can set up a Zoom if needed. In the afternoon, Kassandra Maloney will do a session on Yoga using her new SP1734362 book. Bring a mat, we’ll have books. Have a great weekend! Debra Leff, M.Ed. ESC-13 Education Specialist for Students with Visual Impairments 5701 Springdale Rd. Austin, TX 78723 512-919-5354
