Impacts of an assistive technology graduate program: a case study

Alumni from an Assistive Technology (AT) graduate program were invited to complete a survey and participate in focus groups to share how they are using the knowledge gained from their graduate degree and its impact on their professional careers. The sample of 27 alumni spanned seven years and a variety of professional backgrounds. This qualitative single-case study revealed impacts on careers, professional skill development, and technology skills after graduation. Participants also connected this later skill development to their concrete learning experiences within the graduate program.
