Vision Australia’s Further Education Bursaries

Each year Vision Australia awards financial bursaries to tertiary students who are blind or have low vision for the purchase of adaptive technology such as CCTVs, laptops and screen reading software. Such technology enables easier access to course materials.

Vision Australia’s Further Education Bursary aims to assist clients who would not otherwise be able to afford adaptive technology, thus increasing their ability to participate in further education.

Since 1996, almost 150 bursaries have been awarded by Vision Australia to students studying a broad range of disciplines – from Natural Medicine to Music and Business
