Description

**Are you a Special Education Consultant or Assistive Technology Practitioner with an entrepreneurial drive for promoting assistive devices in the classroom?? 


**Are you a motivated, tech-savvy, Speech-Language Pathologist, Occupational Therapist, Rehabilitation Engineer, or even a graduate student who wants to increase your earnings through high percentage sales commissions?? 


**Do you want to sell amongst the prestige of an award-winning, interactive technology reseller, while improving the classroom curriculum of students with significant disabilities??

We are currently recruiting Independent Contract Sales Representatives to deliver high-energy, impactful presentations to school administrators throughout a large territory.  The successful representative will vigorously promote and present our new and innovative assistive technology, the Touch Accessible Platform for Integrated Technology (TAP-it). 

The TAP-it features a touch sensitive, SMART Notebook software enabled, interactive LCD panel – the only workstation of its kind – with capabilities to tilt and adjust at multiple angles.  These adjustments make the stationary, wall-mounted, interactive whiteboard accessible to students with significant physical and/or learning disabilities.  The TAP-it allows for annotation and touch stimulation for those students confined to wheelchairs, hospital beds, or using other assistive devices, promoting increasing classroom independence.  Teachers will also appreciate the user-friendly features of this ADA compliant interactive learning station.


We are looking to contract with reps that exhibit a passion for assistive technology and can easily communicate with school administrators.  The ideal sales representative will have the natural ability to “wow" a room, while lending their device expertise.   This highly visible role presents a great opportunity to contribute to a vital piece of the Special Education classroom.  Become a part of our continued commitment to the 21st Century Classroom and take assistive technology another giant step forward!
