[BlindRUG] SPSS with JAWS?

[vincentfmartin2020 at gmail.com]

It's been four years since I used it.  I think it was version 23 back then
and the scripts that were JAWS based  made it somewhat accessible.  With
some sighted assistance and proper use of when to use keyboard commands as
opposed to driving the menu driven GUI, a first semester Statistics course
could be mostly completed.  
I am unsure of what changes have been made since then, so I can't vouch for
any level of accessibility now.

Subject: [BlindRUG] SPSS with JAWS?

Hello,

Hope everyone had a great holiday whatever you celebrate or else a great
weekend!

I am going to preface the question by saying I'm not interested in opinions
about whether SPSS is a good program, should professors be teaching it, et
cetera. I really don't care right now.

All I want to know is, I'm going to be taking a class next semester where
they use a recent version of Grad Pack Premium for IBM-SPSS.

1. Is it accessible with JAWS?
2. If so, how can I make sure when I'm buying that I'm setting it up to be
accessible with JAWS?
3. If it is not accessible with JAWS, is there documented proof/demo of why
it is not accessible in case I need to explain to higher ups why I cannot
use it?

Thank you.

Best,

Amy Albin
