OVR/OVRB will help ensure that no student with a disability is denied the benefit of Pre-ETS because of the student's disability, impairments, or barriers. If an eligible or potentially eligible student requires reasonable accommodations/auxiliary aids or services to access or participate in any of the required Pre-ETS, OVR/OVRB must provide for such costs when no other public entity is required to provide such aid or service.
However, personal devices and services do not meet the definition of auxiliary aids and services under the Americans with Disabilities Act or Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended. Therefore, if a student with a disability requires personal devices, services, or individually- prescribed assistive technology, such as prescription eyeglasses or hearing aids, readers for personal use or study, or services of a personal nature, OVR/OVRB must work with the student to determine if he/she meets the eligibility criteria to receive VR services and develop an IPE for the provision of the needed individualized services.
