09/13/21 • 64 min
Preparing for life after high school can be an exciting and daunting task, and whether you’re a student, parent or educator, it’s normal to have anxiety about how to be successful in a new educational setting. This summer, Be My Eyes is teaming up with Perkins School for the Blind and Accessible Pharmacy to present a live webinar event for blind and low vision students, families and educational professionals focused on getting everyone ready for independent living, college, jobs and beyond. We will discuss skills, training, and tips for students and families – and we’ll hear from some real students who have been through this process recently.
