DIIT

The Deaf Initiative in Technology (DiiT), a project of NSF’s Advanced Technological Education program, series of workshops provides computer, graphic communication, and business-based training workshops in sign language to deaf and hard-of-hearing adults. The rapid pace and complexity of technology puts increasing demands on companies, organizations, and professionals. To stay knowledgeable and competitive, deaf and hard-of-hearing professionals get up-to-the minute technical skills through DiiT workshops. Without the need for interpreters that most professional workshops require, workshop participants get the benefit of direct interaction with the instructors. DiiT offers workshops in Graphic Communications, Information Technology, and Business.
