Comments: Click here to register for the Window-Eyes Beginner/Intermediate Script Writing class in Portland, Oregon!

GW Micro is excited to offer our Window-Eyes script writing class for intermediate and beginner users in the Pacific Northwest! This is a class that many of you have been asking for, and now you will be able to join the class in the city of Roses! 

This class is for people who have little or no script-writing experience. You will, however, need to have a good working knowledge of Window-Eyes. It is highly recommended that you have taken the Window-Eyes training class within the past 12 months. The Beginner/Intermediate script writing class offers the ability for anyone interested in scripting to be able to come and learn how to use scripts, configure scripts, and create scripts with no prior knowledge of scripting required. A large focus is placed on the basics of scripting, and how to get started creating your own scripts, as well as how to use scripts to make applications more accessible. If you have used scripting languages from competing screen readers in the past, this is the perfect opportunity for you to get up to speed with Window-Eyes scripting! 

Due to the large amount of material this class covers, the training will be a 3-day class. The class will be held on October 5, 6, and 7 at the Oregon Commission for the Blind, which is located at: 

535 SE 12th Avenue
Portland, OR 97214

For directions to the training, please call the Oregon Commission for the Blind at (971) 673-1588.

The cost for this class is $895. We anticipate a very high demand for this class, so be sure to register soon by going to www.gwmicro.com/training. Make sure to select Portland, OR as the training location.
