In a center-based O&M service model, where do interactions between student and specialist typically occur?

In a center-based O&M service model, instruction happens at a fixed center where the student and the specialist meet for sessions. This arrangement provides a controlled space with access to the needed resources and a structured curriculum, making it easier to teach and practice orientation and mobility skills in a consistent way. It contrasts with itinerant models, where the specialist travels to the student’s usual environments (home, school, community), and it isn’t limited to services only in school or identical to itinerant delivery.
