Core Competencies for Providing Device Demonstrations

The Core Competencies documents provide a framework to identify essential knowledge and skills for individuals providing AT demonstrations for State AT Programs. These documents identify minimum core competencies necessary for professional AT demonstrations. These competencies can be used to:

  • Establish expected minimum skills for staff and subcontractors
  • identify and guide personal AT professional development needs
  • Useful for hiring process and decisions (i.e. job descriptions; interview questions; hiring decision criteria etc.)
