The Technology Resources for Education (TRE) Center, a co-sponsored project of the New York State Education Department, Office of Vocational Educational Services for Individuals with Disabilities (VESID) and the Albany-Schoharie-Schenectady-Saratoga BOCES.

The TRE Center continues to develop "Guidelines for Assistive Technology for Service Providers in New York State." These guidelines will help districts provide students with disabilities with access to learning technologies and ensure compliance with Federal mandates for Assistive Technology.

The TRE Center provides a wide variety of services. Among them are individual student technology consultations; a Internet Web Page; Newsletter; reference and software libraries, a Regional Assistive Technology Device Loan and Training service, and turnkey training for the state guidelines.

The TRE Center also coordinates the VESID initiative regarding Distance Learning for Assistive Technology in collaboration with the National Association of State Directors of Special Education.
