Mobility training today II: differences in approach

W.D. Alan Beggs

Blind Mobility Research Unit, University of Nottingham

The way in which instructors and learners interact together during training is of crucial importance for the success of that training. In the course of depth interviews with a wide sample of mobility officers, two broad interactive styles were identified. These were client-centred and trainer-centred, reflecting the balance of responsibility for remediation between MO and client. However, it was also found that training methods seemed to vary with training style, particularly with low vision clients. The implications of these findings are discussed.
