AbleLink's ATLAS Travel Readiness Assessments now available as a stand-alone cloud service

COLORADO SPRINGS, November 27, 2020 --

The ATLAS Travel Readiness Assessments address a key issue in giving people with intellectual disabilities the freedom to travel in their community: How to be sure whether a person is ready to go out on their own. Travel Readiness Assessments evaluate the training process and point out areas in need of improvement. Individuals progress through the assessments in a safe environment before beginning use of bus, light rail, or foot navigation in real-life settings.

Dan Davies, AbleLink Founder & President, recently recorded the first of a new series titled "12-Minute Tech Talks". This session is devoted to an overview of the ATLAS Travel Readiness Assessments. You can view the session on demand at http://videos.ablelinktech.com/AbleLink_12_Minute_Tech_Talk_Travel_Readiness_Assessments_20201123.mp4.

Five separate surveys are included in the Travel Readiness Assessments. Each survey has multiple questions and response options in AbleLink’s trademark picture-and-audio interface. Instead of an interview conducted by a staff member, people in travel training can take the surveys on their own.

Survey topics include:

  • Transportation Skills and Experience
  • Community Social Skills
  • Light Rail Skills and Experience
  • Street Crossing Skills
  • Vehicle Identification Skills
