Description

This 3 day intensive workshop is designed to teach participants how to use the Voiceover screen reader that is installed on every Apple computer running the OSX10.6 Snow Leopard operating system or later.

Each day consists of group instruction, time for practice, and personalized one on one instruction.

Topics covered include, setting up an Apple computer and using Voiceover out of the box, understanding the various elements, menus, and dialogs encountered within the OS, and the many applications that come pre-installed; word processing, browsing the internet, iTunes, file management and much more.

Participants who do not already own an Apple computer are provided one to use while in class and participants may also purchase a computer as part of the training so that they may take home the computer which they have been working with during the workshop.

"Apple is the clear front runner in terms of off the shelf accessibility" states Earle Harrison, President and Founder of Handy Tech North America, "and we are proud to be among the first adaptive technology companies to offer such an in-depth and comprehensive class on this exciting and ever evolving technology."

Who should attend?

Any blind or low vision professional or student interested in learning the free Voiceover screen reader included with every Apple Macintosh computer running the Snow Leopard OSX10.6 operating system or later, with the goal of becoming more competitive with their sighted classmates or co-workers.
