New Post-Graduate Course in Orientation and Mobility
We are proud to announce the launch of the “Orientation and Mobility Instructor for Individuals with Blindness or Visual Impairment” post-graduate programme — the result of dedicated collaboration within the ENVITER network.
This innovative course, developed through the Orientation and Mobility Working Group, is a remarkable example of what our network can achieve through shared vision, professional expertise, and international cooperation. With contributions from multiple ENVITER member organisations, the programme was designed to respond to the growing need for qualified professionals who can support the independence and inclusion of blind and visually impaired individuals across Europe.
Offered by Eötvös Loránd University (ELTE), Bárczi Gusztáv Faculty of Special Needs Education, the course spans two semesters and combines online and on-campus learning. Participants will gain both the theoretical foundation and the practical skills required to teach safe, independent travel to adolescents and adults with visual impairments — including those with additional disabilities.
This achievement reflects the strength and purpose of the ENVITER network: working together to build a more inclusive, accessible and professionally supported future.
