Pn2 is proud to announce that our QuickClasses are pre-approved for CRCC (Commission on Rehabilitation Counselor Certification)  CEs and RID (Registry of Interpreters for the Deaf) CEUs. Check out our QuickClasses starting September 9th Registration will open August 6th.

For pn2’s Fall session of QuickClasses, two new classes join “Making Online Courses Accessible,” providing participants with targeted discussions on access issues.  “Making Your Campus Accessible” and “Accommodations 101: Providing Services for Students who are Deaf or Hard of Hearing” will be offered for the first time.  Registration for these courses opens soon.

Let pepnet 2 help with that process!  We have an interactive eLearning course for job hunters called Getting a Job!  These self-paced modules help you plan an effective search, and even learn attitude-adjustment tips that will improve your chances at getting hired. 

The pepnet2 Training Institute will return in July, 2014 in Sacramento, CA. We hope you plan on being there with us!!  Until then, take advantage of our resources here on the web.

As the start of the Fall semester approaches, are you ready to interpret those Math classes?? Get started on improving your fluency with signs for math concepts by using pepnet2’s free, online videos about numbering systems in ASL.

Congratulations on making the decision to offer speech-to-text services to a student who is deaf or hard of hearing on your campus.  Now you just need to decide WHICH service you should pick.  What’s the difference between CART, C-Print and TypeWell.  Pepnet2 has a video AND a written document to help you make that decision.

We all encounter situations that we cannot resolve on our own.  That’s why the pn2 Technical Assistance Team offers a LiveChat link on the pepnet.org website, monitored by members of the TA team who are ready to answer any and all questions posed by pepnet2 stakeholders.

“Including Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing Students With Co-occurring Disabilities in the Accommodations Discussion,” is a new article written by Leppo, Cawthon and Bond.  Published in the Journal of Deaf Studies and Deaf Education, the article describes the unique needs of students who are deaf or hard of hearing who also have additional disabilities, as well as the lack of research literature addressing their accommodations.
