Assistive Learning Technology Center (ALTEC)

ALTeC is the technology arm of the Office of Accessible Education providing resources to make information technology and education more accessible for students with disabilities. Students can access assistive technology software such as screen magnification, speech recognition, text-to-speech screen readers, and composition tools from many of the computing clusters throughout the University and residences.

ALTeC's Alternative Format Production Facility (AFPF) converts printed text to computer files (e-text), large print, or Braille using high-speed scanners and Braille embossers. The Equipment and Software Loan Library (EaSLL) allows students to borrow certain assistive technology for short-term evaluation purposes.

ALTeC's services are available to eligible students who need assistance due to a disability. Students should contact the SDRC at (650) 723-1066 for more information.
