Description

The "Centre of technology applied to social and vocational development" is a comprehensive space (including training, information, assistance, communication) which purports to address currently unmet needs in the field of disability and/or persons with special difficulties concerning the job searches, through the development of social technology, methodology and individual adaptation processes within the framework of a leading research, development and innovation area in the field of disability and employment in the Basque Autonomous Region.
We have attempted to create a space for innovation featuring the latest contributions in the areas of ergonomics, environmental efficiency and integration. Spaces have been adapted to all types of disability based on the concepts of universal access and "Design for All" with guiding bands, sound elements, light panels, screens, ground light guides etc. As well, we have provided a modern and functional workplace medical facility to assist crowds to which can be added welfare functions, equipped with emergency defibrillator and medical equipment.
