Hi Jackie
Do you happen to know Martin Griffiths, and Jackie Hall
(both at Humanware) are either of them blind, and if no do they
Both know Braille?
At the moment I think Martin will be be my trainer for
The Braille note DBC package.
Lucy Naismith did a demonstration here but that wasn't
Very successful, so Alan Davis came on another visit and he was
Great with his communication skills.
I was very impressed he even knows deafblind manual so there was
No need for an interpreter to assist.
Trying to keep on topic *smiles* do you thing there is a need
For some kind of formal qualification for trainers.
We don't let teachers in to a class rooms unless they
Have the relevant degree pass, but it seems anyone can
Can call themselves I.T trainer, or even a Jaws trainer.
A lot of money is paid out for training, and surely
We need to make sure those that t rain us, have the
Right skills to do it.
Regards, Derek
