Technologists during the pandemic. Our goal is to understand the effect virtual support had/is having on your students/clients, yourself, and your organization. The intent is to release the results of this survey as a white paper which you will have access
to via your AT networks. This white paper can help inform how you in your role or your organization adjust to future AT supports for your students/clients. We have opened the survey to AT’s from all sectors: K-12, post-secondary, public, and private sectors.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black">The survey may take you approximately 7-10 minutes to complete. We appreciate you taking the dedicated time to complete
this survey, as it will benefit our entire community of AT’s. AT’s that are new or seasoned are invited to participate. Please forward this survey/email to any AT networks you are connected with or share with AT colleagues not active on these AT networks.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black">Ideally, we would like responses before Friday, April 29<sup>th</sup>, 2022. All responses will remain anonymous. As an
incentive, at the end of the survey, you can choose to enter your name into a raffle to win a prize.</span> <o:p></o:p></p>
