International Association of Accessibility Professionals (IAAP)
IAAP is a not-for-profit association focused on advancing the accessibility profession through

Finding the best assistive technology
Everyone, including people with disabilities or age-related limitations, should be able to communicate,
express themselves, and connect with the world using technology. HP is committed to increasing
accessibility awareness within HP and with our customers and partners.
Whether it’s large fonts that are easy on the eyes, voice recognition that lets you give your hands a rest,
or any other assistive technology to help with your specific situation—a variety of assistive technologies
make HP products easier to use. How do you choose?
Assessing your needs
Technology can unleash your potential. Assistive technology removes barriers and helps you create
independence at home, at work, and in the community. Assistive technology (AT) helps increase,
maintain, and improve the functional capabilities of electronic and information technology.
You can choose from many AT products. Your AT assessment should allow you to evaluate several
products, answer your questions, and facilitate your selection of the best solution for your situation.
You will find that professionals qualified to do AT assessments come from many fields, including those
licensed or certified in physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech/language pathology, and other
areas of expertise. Others, while not certified or licensed, can also provide evaluation information.
You will want to ask about the individual's experience, expertise, and fees to determine if they are
appropriate for your needs.
