Long Beach, California - December 11, 2025 - PRESSADVANTAGE -

The Irlen Institute announces a significant expansion of its educational initiatives through a new partnership with Levinsky-Wingate Academic College in Israel, where the institution has integrated Irlen Screener Training into its official course catalogue for educators and health professionals.

The collaboration marks an important development in the availability of specialized training for identifying and addressing Irlen Syndrome, a condition affecting millions worldwide that can cause reading difficulties, headaches, and attention challenges. Through this partnership, students at Levinsky-Wingate Academic College can now pursue certification as Irlen Screeners, expanding the network of qualified professionals capable of identifying individuals who may benefit from color-based interventions.

Levinsky-Wingate Academic College, formed through the merger of Levinsky College of Education and Wingate Academic College, represents one of Israel's leading institutions for teacher training, physical education, sport, and movement studies. The college's holistic mind-body approach to education aligns with the Irlen Method's comprehensive approach to addressing visual processing difficulties.

"This partnership with Levinsky-Wingate Academic College represents a crucial step in expanding access to Irlen screening services throughout Israel and the broader Middle Eastern region," said Sandra Tosta, President of the Irlen Syndrome Foundation. "By integrating our training program into their academic offerings, we are ensuring that future educators and health professionals have the tools and knowledge necessary to identify students and clients who may be struggling with unidentified Irlen Syndrome."

The Irlen Screener Training program equips professionals with the skills to conduct initial assessments using colored overlays to determine if individuals might benefit from further evaluation for Irlen Spectral Filters. These filters, worn as glasses or contact lenses, address underlying perceptual processing difficulties and light sensitivity that contribute to various learning and performance challenges.

The integration of this specialized training into an academic institution's formal curriculum represents a growing recognition of the importance of addressing visual processing difficulties in educational and therapeutic settings. With certified providers already operating in 46 countries, the Irlen Institute continues to expand its global reach through strategic educational partnerships.

The Irlen Institute has pioneered the use of color to alleviate visual stress and improve the quality of life for individuals with light sensitivity and related conditions. The organization provides identification and solutions for Irlen Syndrome, colored overlays and spectral filters, self-testing options, professional training programs, and ongoing research in spectral filter color lens technology. The Institute's innovative solutions have been featured by major news outlets, including NBC News, ABC News, and CBS News, and have helped millions of adults and children worldwide improve their academic performance, workplace productivity, and overall quality of life.
