[Job-Discussions] Reason NIB is starting Cisco course using low vision

[Jordan Gallacher]

Suggest watching this closely since NIB does not care about those of us who use Jaws evidence by repeatedly being told that they have been working on accessibility for Jaws with other things.  It does not take over seven years to do so.

Subject: [Job-Discussions] Reason NIB is starting Cisco course using low vision

 

Dear List Members,

 

Rikki Howe of NIB explained why they are starting their Cisco course with low vision and then moving to screen readers:

 

“We are starting with low vision 1st since this is a new program for cisco working with BVI  it gives us time to figure out the virtual capabilities for the hands on portion of the training utilizing JAWS.” 

 

Makes sense,

Dick Davis
