The increasing prevalence of older adults with long-term disabilities necessitates innovative educational approaches to support their health, well-being, and independence. This project aims to bridge the gap in training for researchers, professionals, and students by developing comprehensive in-person and online programs that focus on Universal Design, Accessible & Empathic Design, Health Technology Utilization, and Research Engagement. The specific aims include creating a 9-credit interdisciplinary Universal Design certificate program for STEM students, developing empathic design training for researchers, offering workshops on health technology utilization for healthcare professionals, and enhancing the TechSAge internship program. These initiatives will increase professional competency, promote evidence-based practices, and encourage interdisciplinary collaboration. Long-term goals include empowering older adults with long-term disabilities to actively engage in their health and well-being, fostering a knowledgeable workforce capable of innovative design and technology solutions, and ultimately enhancing the quality of life and independence of this target population.
