Conversations powered by VR. One Manager at a time. One Minute at a time. PODCAST: VRTAC-QM Manager Minute: Project AccessTECH — State VR Programs: Don’t Miss This Nationwide Tech Training Initiative

Get ready to be inspired by Project AccessTECH, a bold, nationwide initiative that’s breaking down barriers and reshaping the future of tech employment for people with disabilities.

In this episode, Carol Pankow welcomes Dr. Ayse Torres, Associate Professor in the College of Education, and Dr. Javad Hashemi, Professor in the College of Engineering and Computer Science at Florida Atlantic University, into the VRTAC-QM Studio.
