Summary

For children with severe cerebral palsy, a powered wheelchair (PWC) may provide their only
 option for functional mobility and independence. PWC use is often restricted to a small
 percentage of children who can quickly demonstrate proficient PWC skills within a single
 30-minute PWC trial. This 2-arm, parallel group, single blinded, pre-test-post-test
 randomized controlled trial will test our hypothesis that an 8-week PWC skills training
 intervention will produce greater improvements in children's PWC skills capacity immediately
 after the intervention and at an 8-week follow-up assessment.
