[nabs-l] Question about becoming a TVI

[Kaiti Shelton]

Hi all,

I know someone who is interested in becoming a Teacher of the Visually
Impaired, but he is concerned about being able to get into a TVI
masters program with the degree he has in his undergrad.  He is
finishing up requirements for earning a B.S in Psychology.  I know
that most TVIs come in after earning special education or intervention
specialist degrees, but I would think having a B.S in psychology
wouldn't be terribly far-fetched since those skills would definitely
be useful.

Is this possible?  I intend to go on the list for professionals in
this field and ask there as well, but I'm just trying to use all the
resources I have.  Any knowledge on this subject would be appreciated.
