AIT Services

Consultancy

  • Tactical - Consultancy for short to medium term needs, this can include a temporary disability recruitment exercise, a quick fix to a known problem, or a quick solution to an immediate requirement, where detailed planning cannot be achieved.

AIT can provide assistance with policy reviews and implementation, the provision of awareness workshops for staff, programmers, developers, line managers, teachers and project managers, helping to achieve accessibility compliance.
