[Athen] James Bailey providing Webinar for EASI

[Prof Norm Coombs]

I realize that people on this list already have learned most of the content 
in this 4-part Webinar series.  However, I wanted to highlight what James 
Bailey is doing and, even more, perhaps you have contacts who would benefit 
from this opportunity.

Presenter James Bailey, MS, Adaptive Technology Adviser, University of Oregon.
this fee-based series is free to EASI Annual Webinar Members.)
Anyone needing continuing education units, can pay an extra fee, take this 
series and also write a related paper and obtain 3 CEUS from EASI and the 
University of Southern Maine

This series combines 4 90-minute live webinars, a text book and a 
Blackboard discussion board.

This Webinar series is an unusual opportunity to
experience the same content as James provides in on-site 2-day seminars. It
focuses on the management aspects of AT in higher education rather than the
technical features, and it will be especially helpful for both new DSS 
staff and AT or DS coordinators
needing to organize and articulate their AT programs.  Like other EASI
events, the presentation will avoid the use of technical jargon.

              Those people who register by Monday April 6 will have the cost
of James' book, included in the $195 cost for the Webinar series. Others
will have to get the book themselves from the publisher, LRP.
