Hello, all:

Some of u have seen this, some not. Sorry for cross-posting, but...

I will be starting Jaws scripting classes on 18 June. I'm thinking
times will be 2100-22:30 gmt each Friday for 12 weeks. Sessions will
be held using teamTalk (available from
www.bearware.dk)
& will also be
recorded. TT is very accessible right from the get-go. I'll be happy
to help u get set up w/that.

Anyone enrolling who has an application they'd like scripted should
submit their choice w/the enrollment fee, as well as a link where the
program can be found. Yours just might be picked as an app to script
as a part of the learning process.

Cost is $240 if paid in 1 payment or $300 if paid in multiple
installments. Please include applicable paypal fees in addition to the
stated amount. The password will be emailed to u prior to each session
if you've paid.

I am allowing no more than 10 students per class, & I've already
gotten 5 commitments. So spots are filling up fast! According to the
principle of the tithe, I allow 1 student per class who cannot pay but
who has the potential to benefit greatly from learning scripting. I
have already approved a student for this particular class in that
category.

If there is enough interest, I will consider holding more scripting
classes, as well as classes on customizing Jaws without scripting. I
encourage private contact *off list* regarding this, as well as any
questions u may have.

The class assumes no prior programming knowledge, though a knowledge
of how to customize Jaws without scripts is helpful. It takes the
student from the very beginnings of the scripting language & guides
him/her through scripting an application. The only aspect that will
not be dealt with extensively is objects, as that can be a course in &
of itself.

The student is provided with a written text, recorded lectures,
instructor feedback, & answering of questions via email.

For those who do not know me well, I have been doing Jaws scripting
since 1995 in a vast array of venues, from call centers to standalone
applications, such as Band-in-a-Box. I am also a longtime instructor,
having first trained physicians & now teaching at the Cisco Institute
for the Visually Impaired. I'm certain many have seen my posts to
various lists over the years, as I try to be helpful where I can.

Again, I encourage private contact regarding this & thank everyone for
their gracious
attention.
