[nabs-l] Studying to be a Teacher of the Visually Impaired

[Jedi]

Hmmm. I'd recommend at least a Bachelor's in Special Ed at the very 
least. If you can shake it, I'd also recommend getting a Master's in 
Special Ed. Afterward, I'd highly recommend getting your TVI training 
at Louisiana Tech through their TBS/O&M program. The generalized 
Special Ed programs are always a good idea because some of your 
students will have multiple disabilities, and you'll want to know the 
current philosophies on disability that your colleagues will operate 
under. That way, you'll have an idea of what to expect in your 
colleagues for good or ill. You'll also know what laws affect your 
practice, especially in the way of writing IEPs and the like.
