Teachers, instructors, consumers, and all those 
whose work involves the teaching, production, 
and/or use of braille are aware that the United 
States has adopted the Unified English Braille 
code by January 4, 2016 as the standard code for literacy.
The purpose of this workshop will be to 
familiarize participants with the changes to the 
braille code introduced by UEB, and to provide 
hands-on training in order to provide a solid 
working knowledge of Unified English Braille. 
Information will also be presented on the new 
National Certification in Unified English Braille 
(NCUEB) which will be available later this year.
Cost:      Participation in the workshop is $50 
for professionals and free to consumers and 
students. Continuing Learning Units (CLU) will be 
provided to workshop participants.
