Yes, they have trainings on Word and Excel as well.  I can't remember if there 
is anything else, but I believe so.  In fact, if I remember correctly, they do 
training on Duxbury as well as training on the screen readers and magnifiers 
themselves.

Hello, Robert, 
Are there other types of training found at this mentioned website to use
with either JAWS or Window Eyes?  I use both types of screen readers, but
primarily JAWS.
Thanks for any more input.

JAWS will indeed work with PowerPoint.  I use it all the time for
presentations and trainings.

A good resource for learning PowerPoint with JAWS is Carroll Tech, a part of
the Carroll Center for the Blind.  They offer online courses on products
such as PowerPoint with assistive technologies such as JAWS.  The courses
are offered through the Carrol Tech web site at

http://www.carrolltech.org 

This is where I learned to use PowerPoint.  I certainly don't regret it
either.

Hi Everyone,
I am new to this list, but as I understand it you all know quite a lot about
things.  I have applied for an administrative assistant position and all the
jobs in that category require you to know how to use Access, Excel, Outlook,
Word and Powerpoint.  I've got the cheat sheet basically for most of these
except Powerpoint.  Do any of you know if JAWS 9.0 or higher will work with
this program?  If so, how and where can I get instructions on using this
program?  
Thanks in advance for all of your help.
