Training the Trainers: Teaching and Supporting Users of Access Technology

May 9-11, 2012

@National Federation of the Blind

Baltmore, MD 21230

Technology is in a constant state of flux. New devices, software, and services 
are being implemented by business and education on what seems like a daily 
basis. Blind and low vision users need access to these same technologies in 
order to compete with their sighted peers. Access technology vendors are 
constantly working to help consumers meet these needs. With the challenges come 
opportunities for users, and the people who train and support them. This 
two-and-a-half-day seminar is designed to provide trainers and content creators 
with the information they need about these powerful tools to ensure that their 
blind and low vision users can succeed in their endeavors. To meet this goal, 
the training will provide hands-on involvement with:

• Screen access software
• Braille
• DAISY eBooks
• Tactile graphics creation
• Apple’s iDevices
• Mac computers
• Notetakers
• Low vision solutions
• Other tools

Don’t miss this opportunity to learn from experts in the access technology 
field, experience the latest in the industry, and visit the largest showcase of 
blindness technology in the United States.
