Lesson 5: Smart Home Technologies

Discover how smart home devices—such as smart lights, thermostats, locks, and lawn mowers—can enhance your life. By harnessing the power of AI, these devices can simplify daily tasks, offer greater control over your home environment, and reduce reliance on paid support services. We’ll also look at the upfront costs of setting up a smart home, as well as how these technologies could save you money in the long run by reducing the need for ongoing support.

Using Your Disability Support Funding

Good news! You might be able to use your disability support funding to pay for our AI training.

Our training is designed to help disabled people carry out tasks more independently and reduce the need for ongoing funded support. If this fits the goals or purpose of your funding, you may be able to use it for our training.

We recommend talking with your Kaitūhono / Connector or advisor to check. You will need to explain how the training will help you carry out tasks more independently or reduce your need for ongoing funded support. If you need help explaining how our training meets these goals, feel free to contact us – we’re happy to assist.
