Have you purchased the Communication Apps TouchChat and Proloquo2Go, but don't have the time to learn how to customize them for your students? This workshop can help you get started. We will start with a short overview of "iDevices", syncing, updating and management. But our focus will be exploring the page sets of both apps and learning how to customize them for your students. You will learn how to import pictures, edit messages and pages, create entirely new page sets, and more. We will also look at some of the free or lower cost communication apps such as Tap to Talk, TS Button and the Lite versions of communication apps.

Lunch will be provided for full day participants.

 A limited number of iPads with both apps are available for anyone who does not have their own, but reservation is required on a first come first served basis.
