Assistive Technology Training for Blind and Vision-Impaired NDIS Participants
Assistive technology mastery, delivered by someone who lives it.
Real Training From Someone Who Understands
I am Muhammad Furqan, an assistive technology trainer based in Morphett Vale, South Australia. I have been using assistive technology myself since 2001. I know what it takes to become confident and independent with screen readers, braille devices, and accessible smartphones — because I use them every day.
BlindlyAble provides NDIS-funded assistive technology training and capacity building for blind and vision-impaired participants across Adelaide and all of South Australia via telehealth. I am an unregistered NDIS provider serving self-managed and plan-managed participants under the Capacity Building — Improved Daily Living funding category.
Who I Serve
Support Coordinators and OTs
I work closely with NDIS support coordinators and occupational therapists to deliver assistive technology training that aligns with participant goals. I provide clear progress updates and professional communication to support your coordination work.
NDIS Participants
Whether you are newly diagnosed, recently received assistive technology, or want to get more from the technology you already have, I offer patient, practical, one-on-one training tailored to your goals and your pace.
South Asian Community
I provide training in English, Urdu, Punjabi, and Hindi. If you or a family member would be more comfortable learning in your home language, I am here to help.
